F On my fifth birthday
F I got so upset
C About the brand new bike
F that I didn't get
F I'd prayed my heart out and it
F didn't seem fair
C I told my grandpa I guess
F God doesn't care and He jusFt smiled
And said my Fchild
MaCke no mistake
FEvery prayer you pray
Get's aFnswered
Even tAhouFgh
FSometimes the Fanswer
Is Cno
F Five years later
F Out behind the shed
C With a stolen pack of
F Granpa's ciggerets
F I struck a match
F And held that first one to my lips
C And prayed to God please let me
F Get away with this
And through the smFokey air
I saw grandpa sFtandin' there
MaCke no mistake
FEvery prayer you pray gets anFswered
Even AthouFgh
FSometimes
The aFnswer is Cno
When I tChink of all the aFnswers in myF life
I would have to saCy
There's Fno Fdoubt
It was always for the Cbest
When I dFidn't get my CwaFy
C Well Grandpa got older
F Like grandpas do
F His health was feelin and I
F Guess I knew
F That It'd be best if He was
F Called on home
C But selfishly I prayed to God
To kFeep Him hangin on
And when He paFssed away
In my mind I hFeard Him Fsay
MCake no mistake
FEvery prayer you pray gets aFnswered
Even AthoFugh
FSometimes the aFnswer
Is Cno
