C 
Listen now, can we talk in love
and walk the town
Am 
Be easy now, go hiking through the hills

in a summer gown
Raise the kids, peace within
Am 
and make our sound
C 
Hear me now,
I'm down on knees and praying
Am 
Though my faith is weak
Without you so please baby
C 
please give us a chance
Am 
Make amends and I will stand until the end
A million times a trillion more
