Pray

Capo: 3rd fret Intro G Em C D/F# [Verse 1] G Well the path that I'm on ain't conducive to peace Em There's blood on my hands, dirt on my knees C Tears on the altar laid out before me D/F# Wasting my breath on recycled old stories G Of love that I've lost and love that I've found Em Trying to grow up in this soul sucking town C Scared that I lost in a world that lay dying D/F# Song after song and night after night Chorus G I pray Em Pray I'm not out on my own C Pray that I make it back home when we're done and the folks have stopped singing D/F# Pray that we close all this distance between us G I pray Em Pray for the silence to end C Pray I hear your voice again when I'm down and it seems all is hopeless D/F# If I could just get the world to slow down for a moment G I'd pray [Instrumental] Em C D/F# [Verse 2] G Well the ends they don't meet Or justify the means Em I'm runnin' on empty Dear God I need sleep C I miss my mama and I miss Rogers County D/F# But home ain't been the same Since they moved on without me Chorus G Still I pray Em Pray I'm not out on my own C Pray that I make it back home when we're done and the folks have stopped singing D/F# Pray that we close all this distance between us G I pray Em Pray for the silence to end C Pray I hear your voice again when I'm down and it seems all is hopeless D/F# If I could just get the world to slow down for a moment G I'd pray (Slowing Down) Em C D/F#
