  ------>()<------ 
 
 
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, 
 
       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, 

     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,
