D
Callin' home, hold the phone like a lifeline

Bb                               F
Let the voices fill me up like a drunkard's wine

        G
Another fix I'm fine

D
Hang it up, kill the light and just lay there

Bb                              F
Think about that girl we had it all I swear

       Em                  A
Yea we thought it'd last forever

Em             A
Then we finalized

Em            A
But no matter where I am

Em                 A
Every night when I close my eyes
[Chorus]
D
Say a prayer for the little man

D/C                             C/B
Cause he's gonna need a helpin' hand

C/B
Now and then and I won't be around

        Cadd9                                     D
Can you just let me know there's an angel lookin' down

D
Say a prayer for a mother's love

D/C                          C/B
Yea I hope that it'll be enough

C/B
Cause I know that it's tough

       Am         G
And he don't understand

      Bb             C       D
Say a prayer for the little man

D
I remember my daddy's phone calls

Bb                                 F
Just a kid I'd always talk to him out in the hall

             G
To keep from settin' mama off

D
So I've been right in your shoes son

Bb                               
Never thought in a million years

    F
I'd ever be the one who

Em                  A
Thought it'd last forever

Em             A
then we finalized

Em            A
But no matter where I am

Em                      A
But every night when I close my eyes
[Chorus]
