Lonestar - I pray


  ------>(Capo 1st fret)------


Intro - D - A - D - Esus - E


(verse)
D                           E
I can't quote the bible, I skipped Sunday School,
      A                Asus    
And I can't count the times I fell,
      A             Asus2 - A
And broke the Golden Rule,
      Bm
So I don't know if he listens,
             A
Sometimes I wonder if he cares,
D
Maybe I'm just wishin,
         E
Cause I can't even prove he's there,



(chorus)
       D           Esus            E
But I pray, he'll watch over my children,
   A            Bm           A
I pray, just to be a better man,
    Bm                        A
To find the strength to rise above,
    D                      A
To be there for the ones I love,
      D            A             Bm      A - E
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day,
      A - E
I pray,


(verse 2)
I confess I don't bow my head as often as I should,
Mostly just when times are bad rarely when they're good,
I don't hold with to much preachin, 
I was raised up to believe,
That a man can never stand as tall,
When he gets down on his knees,


(chorus)
     D           Esus            E
So I pray, he'll watch over my children,
   A            Bm           A
I pray, just to be a better man,
    Bm                        A
To find the strength to rise above,
    D                      A
To be there for the ones I love,
      D            A             Bm      A - E
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day,
      A
I pray,


(lead - F#m - A - Bm - D - F#m - A - Bm)


(ending chorus)
       D         Esus                    E
So I pray, for a world that's gone half crazy,
   A              Bm                A
I pray, for every woman, child and man,
    Bm                        A
To find the strength to rise above,
    D                       A
To teach each other how to love,
      D            A             D     F#m - D - E
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day,
      D - A - D - A
I pray,     I pray,
