Dan + Shay - When I Pray For You: chords

G          D         A
I talk to God about you
                 Bm      G
And I ain't even met you yet
             D              A
Everybody's waitin' on you here
G                D               A
I can't wait to feel your heart beat
               Bm      G
When I lay you on my chest
             D                A
I'm already holding back my tears
   Em                          Bm
I wanna be the dad that my dad was
   G                                      A
I hope that I don't mess this whole thing up

Chorus:
            G D             A   Bm
I pray you lo-ve like your momma
            G D                 A   Bm
And you forgi-ve just like she does
               G               D
And when this life knocks you down
            A                F#
I hope you get down on your knees
                  Bm
Cause that's what I do,
A            G
 That's what I do
 G           G   D  A  Bm
When I pray for you
G          D           A
Oh, and I pray for you

I know you're gonna grow up some day
But don't forget to take your time
And take the time to call back home
It ain't always gonna be easy
It ain't always gonna be fair
I know you ain't always gonna need me
But I promise that I'll always be there

Chorus

G          D         A
I talk to God about you
                  Bm        G
When everything around me breaks
       D                A
I look up and hear him say

Chorus:
Love like your momma
And forgive just like she does
And when this life knocks you down
I hope you get down on your knees
Cause that's what I do, thats what I do
When I pray for you
When I pray for you
When I pray for you
