Intro: G Em G Em 

G     Em      G     Em 
Where does my lover lie 
G Em         G      Em 
I don't love I just lie 
G  Em G  Em    G 
Pray, pray for me 


C 
And where he runs 
         G 
I run in tow 
C 
And where you're from 
          G 
I long to know 


G   Em     G     Em 
How does a child know 
G     Em       G        Em 
Where mother's weakness goes 
    G          Em                G 
And where, and where the trouble grows 


C 
Well you will speak 
                G 
And it shall be so 
C 
And what you say 
              G 
Will be all I know 


G     Em    G       Em 
There was a time of weeks 
G Em           G         Em 
I thought dogs barked at me 
    G      Em            G 
And I, and I had lost my mind 

C 
And the devil had put 
            G 
His mark on me 
C 
And called his branches 
          G 
Shake the tree 


            Am  
That wasn't me for my trying 
             C        Bm    G 
That was the devil and his lying 
Am                Bm      G 
Trying to make me lose my mind 
Em   G  Em  G  Em  G 
O pray, o pray for me 

G      Em     G      Em 
So you got my letter late 
G          Em            G         Em 
From where I permanently etched my name 
G  Em  G   Em          G 
Right, right into your song 

C                           G 
I cannot love, I want to be alone 
C 
I will not love 
             G 
I want to be alone 


           C             
That's not love for its trying 
G                          Bm      G 
That was the devil and his lying 
Em        Am  
Trying to make me when 
    G 
I'm trying to be good 
Em G    Em  G Em   G 
O pray, o pray for me 


C 
And where you run 
         G 
I run in tow 
C 
And where he's from 
          G 
I long to know 
C 
And you will speak 
                G 
And it shall be so 
C 
But I cannot love 
             G 
I want to be alone 
G Em G  Em  G  Em G 
O pray, o pray for me
