The Prayer

F Bb F Bb F Bb F Bb

[Verse 1]

F                         Bb
Fold your hands, bow your heads
F                                       Bb
There's an old time sayin' that's bein' said

F                   C                  Bb
There's a lesson to learn and a lot to see
                                         C    F
There's nothin' more important than your family

Bb      C
Don't forget that boy
            Bb          F
When you're off on your own
            C           F  C
You got the same last name
Bb
And your mama loves you so


[Verse 2]
F                                            Bb
There's an old crow flyin' 'cross this fence line
F                                   Bb
Just flappin' his wings and wastin' time
F                               Bb
Well what I would do if I could soar
           F                         Bb
Well this town might not see me anymore
            C
What's the fun in that?
          Bb
Where's a bird to go?
            C
It's a manmade world
        Bb
This is all he knows


[Chorus]

F
Spread my wings, liftoff now
C
Leavin' solid ground
Dm
Think of me floatin' in the air
Bb
Like a shuttle in the atmosphere
F
Hold me close, love me right
C
See me burning through the night
Dm
Like a bird in flight
Bb
Like a bird in flight

[Verse 3]

F                                Bb
You won't always know right from wrong
          F                                       Bb
It's just somethin' you learn just like singin' a song
         F                       Bb
Well I'm tryin' to do the best I can
       F                              Bb
While learnin' to love and act like a man

      C        F          Bb
Dear father protect this land
          C         Bb
Bless my children, amen


[Chorus]

F
Spread my wings, liftoff now
C
Leavin' solid ground
Dm
Think of me floatin' in the air
Bb
Like a shuttle in the atmosphere
F
Hold me close, love me right
C
See me burning through the night
Dm
Like a bird in flight
Bb
Like a bird in flight
