Em                D               Em                 D
First time that I saw her she had white doves in her eyes 
    Em              D             Am         Em
She spoke to me but I could not reply, not reply 
Em        D              Em        D
She was a stranger I had known for years
    Em               D               Am                Em
She brought to me so many smiles and tears, smiles and tears

verse:
Tired maid slowly drifts into the past, into the past 
And finds a home where echoes rest,echoes rest 
She softly kissed my mind, and whispered what will we do with time, do with time 
chorus:
The two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer 
(bridge:play the RiffA then the chorus)
verse:
Another man I choosed to be, choosed to be, 
Or just the man I used to be, used to be 
Another man I want to be, I want to be 
And this question, it keeps haunting me, haunting me 
chorus:
The two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer 
Together like the two hands of a prayer

outro:play the  RiffA ...
