[Am]  [F]  [F]  [G] [C]   [F]  [E7]
[Am] The moment I [Dm] wake up
Before you put [G] on your [C] makeup
I [F] say a little (prayer for [E7] you)
[Am] And while combing my [Dm] hair, now,
And wondering what [G] dress you’ll [C] wear, now,
I [F] say a little (prayer for [E7] you)
 
[F] For ever and [G] ever, 
you'll [Em] stay in my heart and I will love you
[F] For ever, for [G] ever, 
we [Em] never will part, Oh, how I'll love you
[F] Together, to-[G]gether, 
that's [Em] how it must be, To live without you       
Would [F] only be heartbreak for [E7] me.
 
[Am] I run for the [Dm] bus, dear,
While [G] riding I think of [C] us, dear,
I [F] say a little (prayer for [E7] you)
[Am] And at work I just [F] take time
And all through my [G] coffee [C] break-time, (break-time!)
I [F] say a little (prayer for [E7] you) 

[F] For ever and [G] ever, you'll [Em] stay in my heart and I will love you
[F] For ever, for [G] ever, we [Em] never will part, Oh, how I'll love you
[F] Together, to-[G]gether, that's [Em] how it must be, To live without you       
Would [F] only be heartbreak for [E7] me.
(Nobody but me)
 
[F] For ever and [G] ever, you'll [Em] stay in my heart and I will love you
[F] For ever, for [G] ever, we [Em] never will part, Oh, how I'll love you
[F] Together, to[G]gether, that's [Em] how it must be, 
[F] Together, to[G]gether, that's [Em] how it must be, 
To live without you, Would [F] only be heartbreak for [E7] me.
(Ooooh-oo-oo-oooh)

Song Info

Title: I Say A Little Prayer

Artist: Dionne Warwick

Writer: Burt Bacharach, Hal David

Song Types: Pop, R&B/Soul

Key: C

Info: "I Say a Little Prayer" is a song written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David for Dionne Warwick, originally peaking at number four on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in December 1967. On the R&B Singles chart it peaked at number eight

Intended by lyricist Hal David to convey a woman's concern for her man who's serving in the Vietnam War, "I Say a Little Prayer" was recorded by Dionne Warwick in a 9 April 1966 session. Although Bacharach's recordings with Warwick typically took no more than three takes (often only taking one), Bacharach did ten takes on "I Say a Little Prayer" and still disliked the completed track, feeling it rushed.

The track went unreleased until September 1967, when it was introduced on the album The Windows of the World and it was Scepter Records owner Florence Greenberg rather than Bacharach who wanted "I Say a Little Prayer" added to that album. When disc jockeys from the United States began playing the album track in October 1967, significant air play led Scepter Records to release the track as a single, backed with newly recorded track "(Theme from) Valley of the Dolls".
