Verse 1
A (D major) Little Girl (A major) (D major)
A little girl prayed at the close (G major) of the day (D major)
Cause her daddy had gone far away (A major)
On (D major) her little face was a (G major) look of despair
(D major) I stood there and listened
and I (A major) heard this pray (D major) er
my mama (G major) says daddy has
brought (D major) us to shame
and i'm (G major) never no more to
men (D major) tion his (A major) name
Lord, (D major) take me and lead me
and hold (G major) to my hand
(D major) Oh, Heavenly Father,
help (A major) me understand (D major)
You know, friends, I wonder
how many homes (G major) are broken tonight
And (D major) just how many tears are shed
By some little word of anger
that never should have been said
(A major) I'd like to tell you a story of a family
(D major) I once knew we'll call them
Mary (G major) and William
and their little daughter (D major) Sue now Mary
was just a plain mother and Bill
well he was the (A major) usual dad
an (D major) d they had their little family quarrels
like everybody (G major) else
but Neither one really got mad.
(D major) Then one day something happened.
It (G major) was nothing, of course,
but one word (D major) led to another,
and the last word led to a (A major) di vorce.
Now (D major) here were two
grown -up people
who failed to use common sense.
(G major) They strengthened their own
(D major) selfish pride
at little Sue's (G major) expense.
(D major) You know, she (A major) didn't ask
to be brought to this world
(D major) to drift from pillar to post
but a (G major) divorce never stops
to consider the ones it (D major) hurts the most
there'd be a lot (G major) more honest loving
in this wicked old world today
(D major) if just a few parted (A major) parents
could hear little sue say
(D major) take me and lead me and hold (G major) to my hand
(D major) Oh, Heavenly Father, help (A major) me understand (D major)
