Aretha Franklin - I Say A Little Prayer For You

(INTRO)
F#m B7 E A D C#

(VERSE)
F#m          B7
The moment I wake up
             E     A
Before I put on my makeup
  D                       C#
I say a little prayer for you
F#m              B7
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
           A
And I will love you
D           E        C#7        F#m
Forever, forever, we never will part
             A
Oh, how I'll love you
D           E              C#7         F#m
Together, together, that's how it must be
            A
To live without you
      D                      C#
Would only be heartbreak for me

(VERSE)
F#m           B7
I run for the bus, dear,
               E        A
While riding I think of us, dear,
  D                       C#
I say a little prayer for you
F#m            B7
At work I just take time
                   E      A
And all through my coffee break-time,
  D                       C#
I say a little prayer for you

(CHORUS)
   D        E            C#7        F#m
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
           A
And I will love you
   D        E       C#7        F#m
Forever, forever we never will part
             A
Oh, how I'll love you
  D          E             C#7         F#m
Together, together, that's how it must be
            A
To live without you
      D                      C#
Would only be heartbreak for me

(CHORUS)
   D        E            C#7        F#m
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
           A
And I will love you
   D        E       C#7        F#m
Forever, forever we never will part
             A
Oh, how I'll love you
  D          E             C#7         F#m
Together, together, that's how it must be
            A
To live without you
      D                      C#
Would only be heartbreak for me

For me there is no one

Please love me, too
B7               A
I'm in love with you
B7        A
Answer my prayer, baby
B7               A
Say you love me, too
B7        A
Answer my prayer, baby

   D        E            C#7        F#m
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
           A
And I will love you
   D        E       C#7        F#m
Forever, forever we never will part
             A
Oh, how I'll love you
  D          E             C#7         F#m
Together, together, that's how it must be
            A
To live without you
      D                      C#
Would only be heartbreak for me
