Em D Em D
First time that I saw her she had white doves in her eyes
Em D Am Em
She spoke to me but I could not reply, not reply
Em D Em D
She was a stranger I had not known for years
Em D Am Em
She brought to me so many smiles & tears, smiles & tears

Verse:
——
Tired maid slowly drifts into the past, into the past
And finds a home where echos rest, echos rest
She softly kissed my mind, and whispered what we will do with time, do with time
Chorus:
——-
The two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Bridge: (play Riff A then Chorus)

Verse:
——
Another man I choose to be, choose to be
Or just the man I used to be, used to be
Another man I want to be, want to be
And this question, keeps haunting me, haunting me
Chorus:
——-
The two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Together like the two hands of a prayer
Outro:(Play Riff A)
