Unanswered Prayers - 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 intro[F#m]duced 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 wis[A]hed back [G]then[F#m]
I'd [Em]never ask for [D]anything [A]again
|[Chorus]
|Sometimes I thank [D]God for una[G]nswered prayer[A]s
|Remem[D]ber [A]when you're [Bm]talkin' [A]to the [Em]man up[A]stairs
|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 una[A]nswered [D]prayers[F#m][G][A]
[Verse 2]
[D]She wasn't quite the angel that I remem[G]bered 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 una[G]nswered prayer[A]s
|Re[D]member [A]when you're [Bm]talkin' [A]to the [Em]man up[A]stairs
|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 unansw[A]ered...
Some of [D]God's greatest [Bm]gifts [Em]are unanswered [A]prayers[D][F#m][G][A][D]
