Mama Say a Prayer

(início)

         D                                A
    The bright lights of this city are a pretty sight to see,
                            A7         D       G        D
    perhaps they`re extra pretty to a country girl like me.
                                       D7                G
    Temptation waits at every turn, and it won`t let me be.
                         D                   A      A7        D
    So, Mama, when you pray tonight, say a special prayer for me.
   A                                 G              D
I miss your tender goodnight kiss of love and understanding,
     E                                A            A7
the good night kisses I get now are cruel and so demanding.
     D
So, Mama, when you pray tonight,
      D7                   G
and while you`re on your knees,
              D       A        D
Mama, say a special prayer for me.
         D                                       A
    The nights get cold and lonely, when you`re far away from home,
                         A7         D        G      D
    and lonely makes it easy for a good girl to go wrong.
                                             D7               G
    Evil eyes search through the night for lonely girls like me.
                         D                  A      A7        D
    So, Mama, when you pray tonight say a special prayer for me.
