Hey Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you
Am
You're the one I sent it to, late last night
Bb
I saw your picture, in my dreams
Am
You were broke down, but full of life
D# Bb Am/F D#
I don't know who you are, I don't even know your name
Bb F Bb
But just the same, Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you
Bb
Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you
Am
I sent it to God, late last night

He put it in your pocket, and in your heart
Am
And may it get you, to morning's light
D# Bb
You may not know how much we care
Am/F D#
Cause we're not there to ease your pain
Bb F Bb
But just the same, Mr. Soldier, I have a prayer for you
