[Intro]
Am G F C G
[Verse]
Am G F
Born on a lonely planet, full of broken dreams
C G
Where no one understands me
Am G F
When I finally met an angel, I didn't know what to say
C G
She just held my hand
Am G F
And we would lay awake at night, looking at the stars
C G
Thinking of the ones we've lost, and wonder where they are
Am G F
When we lit another candle, she asked me who's to blame
C G
Then she put her arms around me, and held me to the flames
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am C G
So why do we hurt each other?
F Am G
We don't need the words for one anothers
[Chorus]
Am G C F Am
Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all
G F
Do they answer when you call?
Am G C F Am
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
G F
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate
[Verse]
Am G F
None of this makes sense, in this reality
C G
God just leaves the room, when I turn on my TV
Am G F
I see a little girl who's crying, 'cause she lost her family
C G
All these strangers sending thoughts and prayers, she buried underneath
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am C G
Why do we kill each other?
F Am G
We can't feel the pain in one anothers
[Chorus]
Am G C F Am
Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all
G F
Do they answer when you call?
Am G C F Am
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
G F
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate
[Interlude]
Am G C F Am G F x2
[Bridge]
F Am C G
We're so far away from one another
F Am G
We keep building walls between each others
[Chorus]
Am G C F Am
Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all
G F
Do they answer when you call?
Am G C F Am
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
G F
Would you die for me today?
No, I just can't relate
Am G C F Am
Prayers, they don't mean a thing at all
G F
Do they answer when you call?
Am G C F Am
These prayers, when you don't mean what you say
G F
Would you die for me today?
[Outro]
Am G F C G Am
