Chords

[Verse 1]
G                D           Em7
I would lay me down to sleep

C                        D          G
And pray the Lord my soul to keep

                        D                Em7
And though I never saw Him there

C                D               G
I believe He heard each prayer

        C                             G
For God was great,  And God was good

Am7             G                        C
And I knew if I spoke the words

D7sus            C
He would be listening
[Verse 2]
G                        D       Em7
The years can take us far away

C                 D          G
From the simple child like faith

G                D       Em7
But I am longing to return

C                      D                 G
To the place where I first learned

         C                 G
That God is great,  and God is good

Am7  G    C
So, I will speak the words
[Chorus]
G                    Em   D   G
God, our Father,  once again

                 G    C
I bow my head to pray

        G                      Em  D   G                                 G        C
You are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I say

G   Am7          B               Em
A prayer for forgiveness,  a desprate cry for help

         D           G                   C
Or praise flowin from a thankful heart

         Am7             D                       C            G
Like each time before,  I come knowin You're still listening
[Verse 3]
G              D                 Em7
I will never understand

C                     D                  G
How the words of mortal man

G                        D       Em7
Can reach the ears of One so pure

C                         D              G
And touch His heart,  They do, I'm sure

       C                         G
For God is great, and God is good

Am7  G     
And He is love
[Chorus]
A                    F#m    E/G   A
God, our Father,  once again

                  A    D
I bow my head to pray

        A              F#m   E/G  A                         A     D       
You are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I say

A   Bm7          C#             F#m
A pray for forgiveness,  A desprate cry for help

      E                    A       A/C      D
Or praise flowin from a thankful heart

        Bm7        E                     D            F#m
Like each time before,  I come knowin You're still listening 

F#m            D
You're still listening

A                E            F#m7
Now I lay me down to sleep

D                        E         A
And pray the Lord my soul to keep

                     E       F#m              D
Though I may not see You there

                 E       A/E     A
I believe You'll hear each prayer
