Tom: Em7

Intro  G7M  Am7/D  G7M   Am7/D B7M   B7sus4  B7-9
Verse 1:
           Em7           Am7
        The moment I wake up
                     D7    G7M
        Before I put on my makeup
          F#m7                    B7-9
        I say a little prayer for you
        Em7                Am7
        While combing my hair, now
                           D7      G7M
        And wondering what dress to wear now
          F#m7                    B7-9
        I say a little prayer for you

Chorus:
            C       D/C           Bm7        G/B
        Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
           G7    F7M/G G7     [r/h/ kbd: G7: F - G - B - D  F7M: F - A - C - E ]
        And I will love you
            C       D/C       Bm7       G/B
        Forever, forever, we never will part
           Dm7/G G7             [r/h/ kbd: Dm7: A - C - D - F ]
        Oh, how I'll love you
           C        D/C            Bm7        G/B
        Together, together, that's how it must be
            G7   F7M/G G7
        To live without you
               C        D/C            B7
        Would only mean heartbreak for me
        (piano arr. for guitar)

Verse 2:
           Em7                Am7
        I run for the bus, dear
                           D7    G7M
        While riding I think of us, dear
          F#m7                   B7-9
        I say a little prayer for you
           Em7              Am7
        At work I just take time
                            D7         G7M
        And all through my coffee break time
          F#m7                   B7-9
        I say a little prayer for you
