God's Plan Lyrics And Chords By Derek Ryan
An Irish country music song. Written by Derek. God's Plan is by far the most popular of all his songs on this site. It's also one of my favourite's. It was also recorded by Daniel O'Donnell, Lisa McHugh,and by singer Owen Mac. The sheet music is included in the key of F#m, which is the same as the way Derek plays it. I also included the tin whistle notes plus the harmonica tab. God's Plan PDF Guitar Tab now added.
We all set out to find true love,
To meet someone special, that they sent from above.
To have and to hold, together growing old,
To love for the rest of our lives.
It's all part of God's plan my love,
You are my woman and I am your man,
It's all part of God's plan my love,
Joining our hearts, 'till death do us part.
Living forever, God's plan.
I knew when I met you,
You would be my wife,
I felt like I'd known you,
Everyday of my life.
Your Blue eyes saw right
to my wandering soul.
And guided me all the way home.
It's all part of God's plan my love,
You are my woman and I am your man,
It's all part of God's plan my love,
Joining our hearts 'till death do us part.
Living forever, God's plan.
We weathered the storm in each other's arms,
Living forever, God's plan.
To meet someone special, that they sent from above.
To have and to hold, together growing old,
To love for the rest of our lives.
It's all part of God's plan my love,
You are my woman and I am your man,
It's all part of God's plan my love,
Joining our hearts, 'till death do us part.
Living forever, God's plan.
I knew when I met you,
You would be my wife,
I felt like I'd known you,
Everyday of my life.
Your Blue eyes saw right
to my wandering soul.
And guided me all the way home.
It's all part of God's plan my love,
You are my woman and I am your man,
It's all part of God's plan my love,
Joining our hearts 'till death do us part.
Living forever, God's plan.
We weathered the storm in each other's arms,
Living forever, God's plan.

Derek Ryan Lyrics And Chords
Below are the tin whistle notes to God's Plan. It doesn't use the same notes as the sheet music above which is in the key of F#m and wouldn't be suitable for the whistle. The whistle notes below are in the key of D. So all the f and c notes are sharp. This song goes very high on the whistle and my advise is to use some blu-tack to half cover the sound hole to make the sound quieter. If your not used to the way I use letter notes then I'll explain, all the low letter notes up to the B are in CAPITAL letters, all the notes past the B are the high one's and are in lower case letters.
