[Em]The moment I [Am7]wake up
[Am7]Before I put [D79]on my [G]makeup
I [F#m7]say a little prayer for [B7]you
[Em]While combing my [Am7]hair, now
[Am7]And wondering what [D79]dress to [G]wear, now
I [F#m7]say a little prayer for [B7]you
[Cmaj7]Forever, [Cmaj7(add6)]forever, you'll [B7]stay in my heart
And [Em7]I will [G]love you
[Cmaj7]Forever, [Cmaj7(add6)]forever, we [B7]never will part
Oh, [Em7]how I'll [G]love you
[Cmaj7]Together, [Cmaj7(add6)]together, that's [B7]how it must be
To l[Em7]ive with[G]out you
Would [Cmaj7]only be heartbreak for [B7]me
[Em]I run for the [Am7]bus, dear
[Am7]While riding I [D79]think of [G]us, dear
I [F#m7]say a little prayer for [B7]you
[Em]At work, I just [Am7]take time
[Am7]And all through my [D79]coffee [G]break-time
I [F#m7]say a little prayer for [B7]you
[Cmaj7]Forever, [Cmaj7(add6)]forever, you'll [B7]stay in my heart
And [Em7]I will [G]love you
[Cmaj7]Forever, [Cmaj7(add6)]forever, we [B7]never will part
Oh, [Em7]how I'll [G]love you
[Cmaj7]Together, [Cmaj7(add6)]together, that's [B7]how it must be
To l[Em7]ive with[G]out you
Would [Cmaj7]only be heartbreak for [B7]me
