One Prayer Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I just try to make it simple,

[Interlude 1]
clear
[C][Bb][F]
[C]

[Verse 2]
Flipped through [C]the TV,
nothing good's [Em]on
To get your [F]mind off
of what's going [C]wrong
Look through the freezer like
food can [Em]relieve you
From all of the [F]emptiness left in your [C]heart
No beautiful woman or human affec[Em]tion
Fixes [F]the mess that you've
dealt with so [C]long
[G]Nothing on Earth

[Verse 3]
[C]can keep you[Em] lifted
Chemical [F]highs are eventually [C]gone
I know that you've heard this be[Em]fore
And you really wish the church
could say [Am]more to you
'Cause [G]God don't seem as
close as you [F]want him to

[Verse 4]
Please [F]remember however he [C]can
[Am]Know he'll [F]be there to do
[G]Whatever you can[C]'t,
[Am]know he's [F]only [G]one

[Interlude 2]
One prayer away
[D][F]
[C]

[Verse 5]
You're looking for [C]shelter from
all the [Em]bad weather
Desperately try[F]ing to flee from
the [C]cold
Generational curses, getting [Em]worse and
Family [F]demons are centuries [C]old
In the midst of the confusion,
the [Em]abuse, the misuse
You gotta [F]be super human
to face [C]the day

[Verse 6]
But we ask you to have [C]faith,
simply seek [Em]his face
And expect [F]it all to eventually [C]change
I know you've ignored this be[Em]fore
But I'll do my best to make
[G]all [Am]this clear to you
Even [G]when you can't say nothing,
God's [F]hearing you

[Verse 7]
Whatever [C]you can't
[Am]Know he'll [F]be there to [C]do
[G]Whatever you can[C]'t, oh- ooh
[Am]Know he's [F]only [C]one
[G]One prayer away
[D][F]

[Verse 8]
[G]
[C]I kno[Dm]w I can't make it with onl[E]y me
So [Am]it's nice to have a father who will always [A]be,
[Am]oh- [D]oh- oh- oh- ah- ah- ah
[F]One prayer away, yeah
One [D]prayer away

[Verse 9]
He say he'll [D]never leave me
Nor for[F]sake me, no, oh
You'll always be [D](one prayer away), oh
He say he'd [F]be with me until the end of
the [D]earth (one prayer away)
And we know that the answer
for the [F]righteous is yes
One prayer away
[C]
