VERSE 1:
  D      Em   C    G       D       Em
  Things I prayed for when I was young
           C            G           D        Em
  That my father would love me like his only son
          C                G           D
  That my mother would be patient with me
     Em                C      G
  that my sister would not leave
       D  Em    C             G     D         Em
  And If my grandpa could see me beyond his grave
              C             G         D     Em
  That he'd think his little man was so great
            C                  G            D   Em
  That my hair would not stick up in weird places
               C       G
  And I'd be someone someday

CHORUS:
  C               D             Em         C
  Years go by so easily that sometimes I forget
  C               D                 Em                  A
  Years go by and make me see that there's no time for my regret
              C
  No time for my regret

VERSE 2:
  D      Em   C    G   D     Em
  Things I prayed for in my teens
        C            G         D      Em
  That God would forgive all my evil deeds
            C            G                  D
  That my father and my sister would come home
       Em               C    G
  And mom could meet our needs
      D  Em     C          G        D        Em
  And If my grandpa could see me beyond his grave
             C      G             D       Em
  That he'd say a prayer for his family's sake
           C               G            D    Em
  That my hair would stick up in weird places
               C        G
  And I'd be someone someday

--> REPEAT CHORUS

SOLO: (D  Em  C  G)

VERSE 3:
  D         Em       C         G
  Things I pray for now in my twenties
  D                     Em          C                 G
  That God would still love me and Dad would like his new family
       D               Em             C         G
  That I could hug my sister that my mom could rest
          D                Em          C       G
  That my wife would still melt every time we kiss
       D  Em    C         G        D         Em
  And if my grandpa has seen me beyond his grave
      C          G        D      Em
  How cold and silent he has remained
            C                G           D   Em
  That my hair would not fall out in weird places
               C      G
  And I'd be someone someday

--> REPEAT CHORUS
