I got the lyrics from her video of the original song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35say5G5cz8
I know that the A# is kinda scary, so I change it up a bit, like this...
e|-1-|
B|-3-|
G|-3-|
D|-3-|
A|-x-|
E|-x-|
Play the A shape with your middle, ring, and pinky fingers one fret up,
and add the pointer to the first fret of the e string... be sure to mute
the top two strings with your thumb. (I also do this with B because barre
chords are scary...)

She whispers to herCself.
She was only 6 years Dmold that night.
As she hid behind thatA# shelf.
Cause daddy had a little too muchF to drink.
And mama didn't want her to feelC the pain she feltDm.
But she still felt the paA#in...
Well 10 years they Fcame and went,
and dad was Cgone.
So she looked for love inDm other men.
And tried to actA# strong.
FBroken hearts and Scars in only Cplaces she could see.
Cause Dmshe just wanted, she just wanted to A#feel something.
And Fas she sat there on that bed,
Cthinking bout what those girls said,
Dmtears streamed down her eyes.
She crA#ied...
"If there's a FGod out there
CPlease hear my prayer.
I'm Dmlost and I'm scared,
and I've A#got nowhere else to Fgo.
I've come a long, long Cway.
But I'm not sure I can Dmmake it much farthA#er...
So if you're Flistening, could you Cgive a helping hand.
To your Dmdaughter."A#
F Well her path started to change.
She Creached out and grabbed God's grace.
And Dmfinally, she saw a light.A#
Until that Fnight...
Where she decided one drink was alright,
and Cone thing led to another.
DmNext thing you know, 9 months go by,
she's a A#mother.
And Fas she laid there in that bed.
CStroking that small angel's head.
DmTears streamed down her eyes.
She crA#ied...
"If there's a FGod out there
CPlease hear my prayer.
I'm Dmlost and I'm scared,
and I've A#got nowhere else to Frun.
I've come a long, long Cway.
But I'm not sure I can Dmbe the best motherA#...
So if you're Flistening, could you Cgive a helping hand.
To your Dmdaughter."A#
F Well that baby Cgrew into a boy.
DmWho became her A#pride and joy.
He Floved her like no man could.
And her Cheart felt peace, cause she finally underDmstood.
God's A#love.
And Fas she laid there in that bed,
C99 years old.
She Dmgrabbed her son's hand and said.
"There's A#something you must know..."
"There is a FGod up there.
Who Cheard my prayer.
I was Dmlost and afraid.
And I A#had nowhere else to Fgo.
I had no Cclue, what to Dmdo
And then He sent me A#you."
So if you're Flost and afraid,
and you Cfeel so alone,
don't Dmworry child,
cause there's a Father who will A#love you as His own.
Just like he loved his Fdaughter.C Dm A#
Like he loved His Fdaughter.C Dm A#
