Unanswered Prayers Song Lyrics with Chords by (Garth Brooks)

Just the other night at a hometown football game

My wife and I ran into my old high school flame

And as I introduced them the past came back to me

And I couldn’t help but think of the way things used to be

She was the one that I’d wanted for all times

And each night I’d spend prayin’ that od would make her mine

And if he’d only grant me this wish I wished back then

I’d never ask for anything again

Sometimes I thank od for unanswered prayers

Remember when you’re talkin’ to the Man upstairs

And just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care

Some of od’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

She wasn’t quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams

And I could tell that time had changed me

In her eyes too it seemed

We tried to talk about the old days

There wasn’t much we could recall

I guess the Lord knows what he’s doin’ after all

And as she walked away I looked at my wife

And then and there I thanked the good Lord

or the gifts in my life

Sometimes I thank od for unanswered prayers

Remember when you’re talkin’ to the Man upstairs

That just because he may not answer doesn’t mean he don’t care

Some of od’s greatest gifts are unanswered

Some of od’s greatest gifts are all too often unanswered

Some of od’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
