Broken Prayers by Riley Clemmons
Key: GG | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

Verse 1
           G
I've been taught how to talk to You
           C
Hold it together
Make the bad look better
Say all the words that I'm supposed to
         G
Bow my head, say, "Amen"
Yeah, that'll do
               C
Making every dead-end look like heaven
Like being okay is the way to reach You

Pre-Chorus 1
           D                               Em
But You're not afraid of all the things I feel
    D                       C
So why am I afraid of being real?

Chorus 1
              G
You want my tears, every messy word
                Am   C
Every scar and every fear
You want all I have
With no holding back
          Em         D
When I'm hurt, at my worst
              C
You meet me there
'Cause You see the beauty
               G
In my broken prayers!
       Am      C
In my broken prayers!

Verse 2
           G
You don't care if it ain't poetry
                   C
'Cause all of my edges
They are a little rough
But that's all I got to bring

Pre-Chorus 2
              D                              Em
'Cause You're not afraid of all the things I feel
               D                                C
Don't have to hide the scars that still aren't healed

Chorus 1
              G
You want my tears, every messy word
                Am    C
Every scar and every fear
You want all I have
With no holding back
          Em          D
When I'm hurt, at my worst
              C
You meet me there
'Cause You see the beauty
               G
In my broken prayers!
       Am      C
In my broken prayers!

Bridge
G
Mascara running down my face
Desperate cry in a dark place
C
You take me that way
All of me

Chorus 2
              G
You want my tears, every messy word
                 Am   C
Every scar and every fear
You want all I have
With no holding back
         Em           D
When I'm hurt, at my worst
               C
You meet me there
'Cause You see the beauty
               G
In my broken prayers!
        Am     C
In my broken prayers!
               G
In my broken prayers!
        Am     C
In my broken prayers!
