I Say A Little Prayer - Burt Bacharach

Intro: | Cmaj7 | | G | | E | |

|Am7 |Dm7 |
The moment I wake up
| |G7 Cmaj7 | (2/4) |
Before I put on my makeup
|Bm7 |E7 |
I say a little prayer for you

While combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you


| F G |Em7 (3/4) |
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
| C |
And I will love you
| F G |Em7 (3/4) |
Forever and ever, we never will part
| C |
Oh, how I'll love you
| F G |Em7 (3/4) |
Together, together, that's how it must be
| C
To live without you
|F G |E | E|
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you

Stuck in the Middle with you - Steelers Wheels

D
Well I don't know why I came here tonight
D
I got the feeling that something ain't right
G7
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
D
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs
A
Clowns to the left of me
C G D
Jokers to the right, here I am

Stuck in the middle with you


The second verse is:

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right
Here I am, Stuck in the middle with you.


Bridge:

G7
Well you started out with nothing and you're proud that you're a

Self made man
G7
And your friends, they all come crawlin, slap you on the back and say
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
D A7

Third Verse:

Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see that it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor
Cause I don't think that I can take anymore
Clowns...

TEACH YOUR CHILDREN - CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG

D G D A
D G
You who are on the road
D A Asus4
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good-bye

Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by

D G
Don't you ever ask them why
D
If they told you, you would cry
Bm G A
So just look at them and sigh
(pause) D G D A Asus4
And know they love you...

And you of tender years
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by
And so please help them with your youth
They seek the truth before they can die

Teach your parents well
Their children's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by

Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you...
