Sometimes I Pray Lyrics
Capo 2
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I can't always stand by myself, but lord knows I've tried.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I ain't as tough as I seem sometimes, as much as i fight.
D Cadd9
Tonight I'm leanin on the bottle, with a bible in my hand,
D Cadd9 D
and kneeling like you taught me by this empty kingsize bed.
(chorus)
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But sometimes I pray, but not like I would, if you were here.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Sometimes I drink a little more than I should, to fight back the tears.
D Em7 Cadd9
When I'm holdin on to my last breath and I'm drowning in that drop thats left, and he knows, I
G
don't know what to say, sometimes I pray.
(Verse 2)
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Well I've him the blame, for my pain, time after time.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I've walked a fine line, between hell, and playing with fire.
D Cadd9
and I wonder why he listens as i stumble for words,
D Cadd9 D
but that red and white gets clearer with every single verse,
(chorus)
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But sometimes I pray, but not like I would, if you were here.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Sometimes I drink a little more than I should, to fight back the tears.
D Em7 Cadd9
When I'm holdin on to my last breath and I'm drowning in that drop thats left, and he knows, I
G
don't know what to say, sometimes I pray.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
sometimes I pray but not like i would if mama was here,
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Sometimes I drink a little more than I should, to fight back the tears.
D Em7 Cadd9
When I'm holdin on to my last breath and I'm drowning in that drop thats left, and he knows,
G
don't know what to say, sometimes I pray.
