Verse 1

The moment I wake up
 7  7  -8 8  -4  4   -8  7
Before I put on my make up
6  -6 -6 -6 -6   -6    -8  -7
I say a little prayer for you
  4     4  -4  5  -5   7
While combing my hair now
 7    7   -8    8    -4   4   -8  7
And wond'ring what dress to wear now
6  -6 -6 -6 -6   -6    -8  7
I say a little prayer for you

Verse 2 (same tune as verse 1)

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
