     Dm/A              Am
When I  was young, I dreamed  about
G           Am
Oh, so many places
    Dm/A             Am
When I  was young, I never thought
G        Am
I'd be afraid
      C              G
The years go by and with them comes
Dm            E9
Oh, so many changes
 Am              Esus4 E
You know what I mean

Chorus:
    Am
I pray there's another way
  Dm
Sunshine on the morning water
C                G/B       Am
What a day was yesterday, hmm
    Dm                          G
I pray there will be an answer (there's an answer)
    Am
I pray

And in my youth I realized nothing lasts forever
I find myself remembering those happy days
Follow me, I'll show you all the colors of
the rainbow
You know what I mean

Chorus

Don't wait, don't be late
You don't have a second left to hesitate
Walk, talk, do it all
Nothing you can do will break the fall
Turn and turn
Tell me what are you seeing
Clear your mind
If you want to be free
Be there
Turn around expectations
Say 'goodbye' to complications
Be there, be there

Chorus:
I pray there's another day
Sunshine on the morning water
What a day was yesterday, hmm
I pray there will be an answer
I pray
I pray
I pray
I pray there's another day
Sunshine on the morning water
What a day was yesterday, hmm
I pray there will be an answer
I pray
I pray
I pray
I pray there's another day
I pray there will be an answer
I pray...
