[Verse 1]
[G]Thi[C]s i[D]s m[G]y lover's prayer
[C]And I hope it'll reach out to you,
my [D]love
This is my lover's prayer
And I [G]hope you can understand it, my love
See, because my life is such a weary thing
But in my [C]ears, those old friends,
they just ring
Ding -a -ling -a -ling -a [D]-ling
You keep me wanting,
waiting, and wishing
When [G]I know deep down
I'm not to blame
No, Lord
What you gonna do tonight
Honey, you need [C]my loving arm
to squeeze and hold you [D]real tight
What are you gonna do tonight, honey,
when you need [G]my heavy voice
to tell you goodnight
Honey, but you can't let
that be no problem
All you gotta do [C]is come
on home and [D]EJ will
And then I won't be missing you, darlin'
And [G]my lover's proud, we'll be all over
Oh, all over[C], all o[D]ver
What [G]can the matter be
It can't [C]be too serious
That we can't talk it over
[D]Just livin' in this misery, darlin'
You can't [G]make my life all over
Honey, but you can't let
that be no problem
All you gotta do [C]is come on home
and I'll help you [D]sharpen
And then I won't be missing you darling
And my [G]lover's prayer will be all over
It's just got to be all over
All [C]over
You're messing with my [G]mind
I'm running out of [C]time
So [G]over
It's got to be all [C]over
If you hold [G]on, oh [C]baby
It's got to be all [G]over
This is my [C]lifeless prayer
I'm reaching out [G]to you
Lord I'm reaching out [C]to you
Hold [G]on, got to hold [C]on
Hey [G]baby,
Hey [C]baby,
This is my lover's prayer
