Intro: (F#m D/B E A D C#)

Verse:
F#m     D/B
The moment I wake up
       E   A
Before I put on my makeup
 D/F#          C#
I say a little prayer for you
F#m         D/B
While combing my hair, now,
           E       A
And wondering what dress to wear, now,
  D            C#
I say a little prayer for you

Chorus:
D         E   C#7    F#m
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
      A7
and I will love you
D       E    C#7    F#m
Forever, and ever, we never will part
       A7
Oh, how I'll love you
D      E       C#7    F#m
Together, together, that's how it must be
      A7
To live without you
    D          C#
Would only be heartbreak for me.
(single notes going down - C# B A Ab F# E D)

Verse:
F#m      D/B
I run for the bus, dear,
         E   A
While riding I think of us, dear,
D/F#            C#
I say a little prayer for you.
F#m       D/B
At work I just take time
           E     A
And all through my coffee break-time,
  D/F#          C#
I say a little prayer for you.

repeat CHORUS X 2

Bridge:
F#m      D/B
My darling believe me,
        E
For me there is no one
   A   D/B
But you, please love me
 A      D/B
too, I'm in love with
 A       D/B
you, answer my prayer

baby, yeah
