Verse 1
E
B
at the close of the day
C#
F#
Cause her daddy had gone far away
B
E
On her little face was a look of despair
B
I stood there and listened
F#
B
and I heard this prayer
B
has brought us to shame
B
F#
mention his name
B
Lord take me and lead me
E

and hold to my hand

E
You know, friends, I wonder
B
how many homes are broken tonight,
and just how many tears are shed
C#
by some little word of anger
F#
that never should have been said.

I'd like to tell you a story of a
family that I once knew.
E
B

and their little daughter Sue.
Now Mary was just a plain mother,
F#

and Bill, well, he was the usual dad.

F#
But then one day something happened.
B
It was nothing of course,
E
but one word led to another,
B
and the last word led to a divorce.
Now here were two grown up people
C#
who failed to see common sense.
F#
they strengthened their own selfish pride
C#
B
at little Sue's expense.
You know, she didn't ask
E
to be brought into this world,
B
F#
to drift from pillar to post,
B
F#

but a divorce never stops
F#
to consider the one it hurts the most.
B
There'd be a lot more honest loving
C#

in this wicked world today
F#
if just a few parted parents
B
could hear little Sue say,
B
has brought us to shame
B
F#
mention his name
D#m

Lord take me and lead me
E

and hold to my hand
