Unanswered Prayers [Em]Garth Brooks

Intro
Em D G A

Verse 1
D Just the other night at a G hometown football game
My D wife and I ran Bm into A my Em old high school A flame
And G as I introF#mduced them the Bm past came A back to G me
And I Em couldn't help but D think of the G way things used to A be
D She was the one that I'd G wanted for all times
And D each night A I'd spend Bm prayin' A that God Em would make her A mine
And G if he'd only F#m grant me this Bm wish I wisAhed back G then F#m
I'd Em never ask for D anything A again

Chorus
Sometimes I thank D God for unaGnswered prayerAs
RememDber A when you're Bm talkin' A to the Em man upAstairs
That just D because he doesn't answer doesn't G mean he don't E care
Some of D God's greatest Bm gifts Em are unaAnswered D prayers F#m G A

Verse 2
D She wasn't quite the angel that I rememGbered in my dreams
And I could D tell that A time had Bm changed A me
In Em her eyes too it A seemed
We tried to G talk about the F#m old days
There wasn't Bm much we A could G recall F#m
I guess the Em Lord knows what he's D doin' after A all

Bridge
And G as she walked away I F#m looked at my Bm wife
And then and Em there I thanked the D good Lord
For the G gifts in my A life

Chorus
Sometimes I thank D God for unaGnswered prayerAs
ReDmember A when you're Bm talkin' A to the Em man upAstairs
That just D because he doesn't answer doesn't G mean he don't E care
Some of D God's greatest Bm gifts Em are unanswered A prayers

Outro
Some of D God's greatest Bm gifts are all too Em often unanswAered...
Some of D God's greatest Bm gifts Em are unanswered A prayers D F#m G A D
