Intro G5 A5 G5 A5 B5 B5 B5
Verse 1:
E5 A5
The moment I wake up
D5 G5
Before I put on my makeup

I say a little prayer for you
E5 A5
While combing my hair, now
D5 G5
And wondering what dress to wear now
F#5 B5
I say a little prayer for you
Chorus:
C5 D5 B5 G5
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
G5 F5 G5 [r/h/ kbd: G7: F5 - G5 - B5 - D5 F7M: F5 - A5 - C5 - E5 ]
And I will love you
C5 D5 B5 G5
Forever, forever, we never will part
D5 G5 [r/h/ kbd: Dm7: A5 - C5 - D5 - F5 ]
Oh, how I'll love you
C5 D5 B5 G5
Together, together, that's how it must be
G5 F5 G5
To live without you
C5 D5 B5
Would only mean heartbreak for me
