Through My Prayers

Eb                        Bb
Hard to believe I won't see you 
again
    Cm                      Gm7
We were just fighting when winter 
began
Ab
The coldness of our words
Bb                             
Competing with the wind from the 
      Eb  Bb
north

[Verse 2]
Eb                                
Still they make me shiver, but in 
    Bb
a very different way
    Cm                       
The pages of the calendar kept 
Gm7
turning away
Ab
I have some better words now
Bb                                
But it's too late to say them to 
Eb    Bb
you

[Verse 3]
Eb                                
My dream of all dreams, and my hope 
Bb
of all hopes
    Cm                      Gm7
Is only to tell you and make sure 
you know
Ab                         Bb    
How much I love you and how much 
       Eb        Bb
I always did

[Verse 4]
Eb
And yes, I know you loved me
          Bb
I could see it in your eyes
    Cm                          
And it was in your struggle and it 
Gm7
was in your mind
Ab                             Bb
And it was in the smile you gave 
                  Eb    Bb
me when I was a kid

[Chorus]
Eb           Cm        Bb
Feels like no one understands
  Eb          Cm     Bb     Ab  
And now my only chance to talk 
      Bb
to you is
Cm      Bb    Ab
Through my prayers
Ab                 Bb          Cm
I only wanted to tell you I cared
  Eb


[Verse 3]
Eb                        Bb
Every night after and every day 
since
    Cm                       
I found myself crying when the 
Gm7
memory hits
Ab
Sometimes it knocks me down
Bb                             Eb
Sometimes I can just put it away
    Bb

Eb                        Bb
Down in my mind where I don't care 
to go
    Cm                       Gm7
The pain of a lesson is letting me 
know
Ab                          Bb
If you have love in your heart
                      Eb    Bb
Let it show while you can

[Chorus]
Eb           Cm        Bb
Feels like no one understands
  Eb          Cm     Bb     Ab  
And now my only chance to talk 
      Bb
to you is
Cm      Bb    Ab
Through my prayers
Ab                 Bb          Cm
I only wanted to tell you I cared
  Eb

Ab                 Bb          Cm
