D D/F# Bm
A little boy at the end of a day
Em7 A7 A4 A
Knelt by his bed to say a prayer
D D/F# Bm
And Father up in Heaven heard the prayer he prayed
Em7 A7 A7(4) A
And listened to each word with greatest care
C A7 A
&ldquo Please bless that tomorrow I won&rsquo t have to take a bath,
D D/F# Bm
And bless that they will cancel school for snow&rdquo
Em A A#º Bm D/F# Em7
And God had the power to protect him and never let him grow
A7 D Dsus4/A Em7 A4 A
But He said, &ldquo No&rdquo
D D/F# Bm Em7
A young man was holding tightly to the hand of a girl
A7 A7(4) A
Who had to say goodbye
D D/F# Bm
And as she walked away he had to whisper a prayer
Em A7 A7(4) A
As he fought every tear that filled his eyes
C A7 A
&ldquo Please can you make her turn around and change her mind?
D D/F# Bm
It&rsquo s the deepest hurt that I have ever known&rdquo
Em A A#º Bm D/F# Em7
And God had the power to protect him and never let him grow
A D
But He said, &ldquo No&rdquo
G A G A D
And there are yeses that our father can hardly wait to give
G Em7 A4 A
And they are packed in every crevice of the lives we live.
D/F# G A A#º Bm7 D/F#
And sometimes God will pour down miracles and amazing twists of fate
Em7 A7(4) A7 G A/C#
And other times He chooses just to whisper, &ldquo Wait&rdquo
D* Bm7*
And how many times have I prayed for blue skies,
Em7* Asus* A*
So no one has to cancel the game
D G A D
And I feel so abandoned when the sky gets dark
D/F# Bm D/F# A7 A7(4) A
Never knowing all the ones who prayed for rain
C A4 A
Usually the story&rsquo s even trickier than this
D Bm
With solutions that only God could know
Em7 A
But if you ask Him if He&rsquo s ever overlooked you
A#º A Bm D/F# Em7
Or ceased to love you so&hellip
A* D Dsus4/A Em7 A D
He&rsquo ll say, &ldquo No&rdquo
