A PRAYER FOR EVERY YEAR
VERSE:
A# F/A Gm
Do you remember me
Gm F D#
Long ago on bended knee
D# A#/D Cm F
I prayed to You with childhood fantasies
A# F/A Gm
Well I’m all grown up now
Gm F D#
Can you still help somehow?
D# A#/D Cm F
I’m not a child, but my heart still can dream
A# F/A Gm
Please here my prayer tonight
Gm F D#
And help me do what’s right
D# A#/D Cm F
Not for myself, but for a world in need
Chorus:
G Em C
No more lives torn apart
C/A D Bm
That wars would never start
Em D C D
And time would heal all hearts
G Em C
Every man would have a friend
C/A D Bm
And right would always win
Em D
And love would never end
Bm Em Am D G – G#sus - G
This is my prayer for every year
VERSE:
A# F/A Gm
May kindness rule our lives
Gm F D#
Not just the strong survive
D# A#/D Cm F
Sweet tears for all, a thousand years gone by
A# F/A Gm
This is the world I pray
Gm F D#
We will share someday
D# A#/D Cm F
Let me begin by reaching out my hand
Bridge:
G C
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Em A
Maybe only in their blind belief
D A
Will we ever find the truth...
