Am, G, C, D,
[Chorus 1]
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
Now I feel that I
D
Won't be by your side
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
When I realised
D
This is my goodbye
[Verse 1]
Am G
Yeah, have you ever been dogged
C D
By a best mate or even by a friend that you got?
Am G
Well, you been gettin' 'em wrong
C D
They put a knife in your back to get ahead in their job
Am G
You been definitely gettin' 'em wrong
C D
All this hatred, where the hell have they been gettin' it from?
Am G
Every time you succeed like you're settin' 'em off
C D
It's like your life is somethin' that they're envious of
Am G
Don't get jelly when they win though
C D
Anytime they're killin', go and cheer for 'em
Am G
Don't be happy when they get low
C D
Hit 'em up and let 'em know you're here for 'em
Am G
Throwin' hands what you're gettin' ready for
C D
Never been a friendship where there's never any flaws
Am G
In the rulebook there's forever been a clause:
C D
'Never bring a life down just to get ahead in yours'
Yo, tell 'em
[Chorus 2]
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
Now I feel that I
D
Won't be by your side
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
When I realised
D
This is my goodbye
(WHISTLE TUNE)
[Verse 2]
Am G
Yeah, I know it hurts to get backstabbed
C D
Your first reaction, you wanna go and stab back
Am G
It doesn't work, there's nothin' worse
C D
It's undeserved, now they're spreadin' lies and it fuckin' hurts
Am G
They prob'ly did it out of vanity
C D
What's killin', they were meant to be your family
Am G
The shit'll burn, but give 'em worse
C D
Live and learn, swallow your pride and be the bigger person
Am G
That's the problem with friendly competition
C D
Only gonna end as opposition
Am G
You don't ever wanna get in that position
C D
Tell 'em but they never gonna listen
Am G
Yeah, if you do that's some shit that you'll regret it
C D
Either isn't gonna end well or isn't gonna end
Am G
Forgive 'em, start wishin' 'em the best
C D
'Cause while they prayin' that you fail, go and hit 'em with success
And kill 'em
[Bridge]
Am
You gotta know, you gotta know
G
How you've betrayed me
C
And you oughta know, you oughta know
D
I hope you make it
Am
Until you grow, until you grow
G
Out of this hatred
C
You'll never know, you'll never know
D
Until you change it
[Chorus 3]
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
Now I feel that I
D
Won't be by your side
Am
Yesterday I said my
G
Prayer for you
C
When I realised
D
This is my goodbye
