Unanswered Prayers

Biography:

Troyal Garth Brooks (born February 7, 1962 in Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American country music singer songwriter and charity director.

Brooks was a phenomenal musical force in the 1990s. He had his chart breakthrough in 1989, having come apparently from nowhere, and was an immediate commercial success. Lacking the tall and lanky physical appearance typical of some male country stars, he successfully integrated pop and rock elements into his recordings and live performances.

Tabbed by: Amanda P.
INTRO: D D/F# G A

D D/F# G D
Just the other night and a hometown football game
D A Bm Em A
My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
G F#m Bm A G D/F#
And as I introduced them the past came back to me
Em D/F# G A
And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be

D D/F# G D
She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
D A Bm Em A
And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine
G F#m Bm A G D/F#
And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
Em D/F# A
I'd never ask for anything again

CHORUS:
D D/F# G A
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
D A Bm Em A
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
D F#m Bm G
That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
D A D G A D
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

A D G A

D D/F# G D
She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
D A Bm
And I could tell that time had changed me
Em A
In her eyes too it seemed
G F#m
We tried to talk about the old days
Bm A G D/F#
There wasn't much we could recall
Em D/F# A
I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all

G F#m Bm
And as she walked away I looked at my wife
Em D/F#
And then and there I thanked the good Lord
G A
For the gifts in my life

CHORUS:
D D/F# G A
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
D A Bm Em A
Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
D F#m Bm G
That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
D A D G A
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered...
D A D G A
Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
D A D G A D
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
