[Verse 1]
E A
When the morning light
G#m7 C#7
tries to hold you tight
F#m7 B7 E E7
you snuggle down inside
[Verse 2]
A B7
But when the day insists
G#m7 C#7
there's no use to resist
F#m7 B7 E E7
just open up and pray
[Verse 3]
A B7
That every move you make
G#m7 C#7
and every breath you take
F#m7 B7 E E7
and every word you say
[Verse 4]
A B7
Will help the ones you love
G#m7 C#7
and those you don't think of
F#m7 B7 E E7
and those who turn away
[Verse 5]
A B7
And if there is a God
G#m7 C#7
and us he's thinking of
F#m7 B7 E E7
well, don't forget to say
[Verse 6]
A B7
That wives and mothers cry
G#m7 C#7
to see their babies die
F#m7 B7 E E7
it happens every day
[Verse 7]
A B7
So God in heaven above
G#m7 C#7
what are you thinking of
F#m7 B7 E E7
is this the way you play
[Verse 8]
A B7
Well, can't you hear them weep
G#m7 C#7 N.C.
now children mind your feet
F#m7 B7 N.C.
maybe God has gone to sleep
[Outro]
A Am7 E
