Capo 3

D

               G                         D
I Only Pray At Night when the world disappears
                    G                    D
Put away and out of sight, I confront my fears
     Bm          Bm/Bb         Bm/A          G
I am proud, I am strong, I’m endowed just as long
        Bb            A       D
As it’s light, I only pray at night

I only try so hard to make you understand
I’ve got an unmarked card, you’ve got the upper hand
I’m afraid to behave in a way that would leave 
Me scarred, I only try so hard


Bridge:
         F#
And it’s funny, ain’t it funny, what ain’t funny in the dark
      G          D          G         D
Its a mystery to me what my mind will see
         F#
And it’s something, ain’t it something, when you miss that mark
            G            G7       A 
And you get down on your knees to pray


I only fly so high until I come back down
Only travel so far until I turn around
If you can’t wait for me to land go on ahead I understand
If you can’t try, I only fly so high

        Em   G/F# G
Make me cry, cry, cry
        D             A          Bm         G
I don’t know where to go when it don’t seem right…
              Em
I only fly so high
       G/F#   G
I only try so hard
               D
I Only Pray At Night
