Verse 1:
        E5           A5
        The moment I wake up
                     D5    G5
        Before I put on my makeup
          F#5                    B5 
        I say a little prayer for you

        While combing my hair, now

        And wondering what dress to wear now

        I say a little prayer for you
            C5       D5           B5        G5
        Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
           G5    F5 G5     
        And I will love you
            C5       D5       B5       G5
        Forever, forever, we never will part
           D5 G5             
        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

Verse 2:

        I run for the bus, dear

        While riding I think of us, dear

        I say a little prayer for you

        At work I just take time

        And all through my coffee break time

        I say a little prayer for you

                                          G5         A5
        You know every day I say a little prayer

        I say, I say   I say a little prayer  (fade)
