A sinner's prayer is never answered
C G7
A sinner's dreams cannot come true
C F
The one I love now loves another
C G7 C
So sad am I alone and blue
F
Upon my bosom lies your picture
C G7
With tear dimmed eyes I placed it there
C F
Down on my knees I pray to heaven
C G7 C
But angels heed no sinner's prayer
F
A sinner's prayer is never answered
C G7
A sinner's hopes are all in vain

The one I love now loves another

I'll never see my love again

Dear Lord above please hear my pleading
C G7
Bow not my head in darkness fair
C F
She's all I love she's all I needed
C G7 C
Oh won't you hear a sinner's prayer
