PRAYER FOR LOVE
Mary Black
[Intro]
C G C
[Verse 1]
N.C. G
Faith won't heal up everything.
C G
The wound grows and you believe in love.
G
Walk around feeling cut in two,
C G Em
Wide open, with your heart on view.
Am D G Em
All you bereaved, all you bedazzled boys in need,
Am D G
When love won't heal you, why, why believe she will?
[Chorus]
D G D C
O lyubvi malyu otchayanno.
G C
Say it on your knees.
[Verse 2]
C G
Oh, so sharp, and way too cool,
C G
Love's bright and biggest fool
G
Has to work on speaking slow,
C G Em
To think hard, and to lie low.
Am D G Em
All you bereaved, all you besotted boys in need,
Am D G
V krayu dalyokum, chuzhie ne nuzhny.

O lyubvi malyu otchayanno.

O lyubvi malyu otchayanno

Say it on your knees.
[Verse 3]
C G
Candle is a splendid thing--
C G
The room glows, and the candle sings
G
"fly up to the only light,
C G Em
"ev'ry, ev'ry tiny wing!"
Am D G Em
The moth inside you bolts off to join the beautiful;
Am D G
He flies and dies, so quickly, quickly wise.
[Chorus]
D G D C
O lyubvi malyu otchayanno.
G C
Say it on your knees
C D G C G
Crying like a baby, "please, please, please!"
