Praying For Time chords Guitar Chords By Carrie Underwood

Tuning: Standard with CAPO on the 2nd fret

(D) (Gm)/(D) (Bb6) A7

(D) A/(D)
These are the days of the open hand
Am/(D)
They will not be the last

Look around now
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6) C (D)
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
A/(D)
This is the year of the hungry man
Am/(D)
Whose place is in the past
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6) C Em
Hand in hand with ignorance and legitimate excuses

B7
The rich declare themselves poor
Em7/(D)
And most of us are not sure
A7
If we have too much but we’ll take our chances
B7 Em
‘Cause God stopped keeping score
B7
I guess somewhere along the way
Em7/(D)
He must have let us all out to play

And turned his back
A7
And all God’s children
G/B (D)
Crept out the back door
A/(D)
And its hard to love
Am/(D)
Theres so much to hate
(Gm)/(D)
Hanging onto hope
(Bb6) C (D)
When there is no hope to speak of
A/(D)
And the wounded skies above
Am/(D)
Say its much too late
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6) C (D) (Gm)/(D) (Bb6) A7
Oh maybe we should all be praying for time

(D) A/(D)
This is the year of the empty hand
Am/(D)
Oh you hold onto what you can
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6) C
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year

(D) A/(D)
These are the days of the guilty man
Am/(D)
your television takes a stand
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6)
And you find that what was over there
C Em
Is over here
B7
So you scream from behind your door
Em7/(D)
Say whats mine is mine and not yours

I may have too much
A7 B7 Em
But I’ll take my chances cause God stopped keeping score
B7
And you’ll cling to the things they sold you
Em7/(D)
(D)id you cover your eyes when they told you

That he cant come back
A7
‘Cause he has no children
G/B (D)
to come back for
A/(D) Am/(D)
And its hard to love when theres so much to hate
(Gm)/(D)
And hanging onto hope
(Bb6) C (D)
When there is no hope to speak of
A/(D)
And the wounded skies above
Am/(D)
Say its much, much too late
(Gm)/(D) (Bb6) C (D) (Gm)/(D) A7 (D)
Mm, well maybe we should all be praying for time
