[Intro]
Em D G
Em D G
[Verse 1]
Em D G
Well, you almost had me fooled
Em D G
Told me that I was nothing without you, oh
Em D G
And after everything you've done
Em D G
I can thank you for how strong I have become
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em D
'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
G
I had to learn how to fight for myself
Em D
And we both know all the truth I could tell
G
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell
[Chorus 1]
Em D G
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
Em D G C
I hope your soul is changing, changing
Em D G
I hope you find your peace, falling on your knees
Em D G G/B C
Praying
Em D G
[Verse 2]
Em D G
I'm proud of who I am
Em D G
No more monsters, I can breathe again
Em D G
And you said that I was done
Em D G
Well, you were wrong and now the best is yet to come
Em D G
'Cause I can make it on my own
Em D G
And I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known
Em D G
I’ll bring thunder, I'll bring rain, ah-oh
Em D G G/B C
When I'm finished, they won't even know your name
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em D
You brought the flames and you put me through hell
G
I had to learn how to fight for myself
Em D
And we both know all the truth I could tell
G G/B C
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell
[Chorus 2]
Em D G
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying

I hope you find your peace, falling on your knees

Praying
[Bridge]
Em D G
Oh, sometimes, I pray for you at night, oh
Em D G G/B C
Someday, maybe you'll see the light
Em D G
Oh, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give
Em D G G/B C
But some things, only God can forgive
[Chorus 3]
Em D G
I hope you're somewhere praying, praying
Em D G G/B C
I hope your soul is changing, changing
Em D G
I hope you find your peace, falling on your knees
Em D G G/B C
