Mothers Prayer Chords

(ver. 1)
Eddy Arnold
G
The postman came and brought a letter

                C             D7
It was from her boy that went away

             C              G
She gave him up to join the colors

                    D7         G
Each time he writes I hear her pray


               C              G
Dear God watch over my boy in service

                         D7
Help him win the victory there

              C                G
And when this cruel old war is over

              D7          G
Send him home to mother's prayer



The day he left they walked together

            C                   D7
Down to the train that took him away

             C              G
She knew her boy would be a hero

                 D7             G
Her smiling eyes just seemed to pray


               C              G
Dear God watch over my boy in service

                         D7
Help him win the victory there

              C                G
And when this cruel old war is over

              D7          G
Send him home to mother's prayer



Oh soldier boy don't ever forget her

             C                D7
She prays to God for you each day

              C         G
That harm may never overtake you

                     D7   G
When you're fighting far away


               C              G
Dear God watch over my boy in service

                         D7
Help him win the victory there

              C                G
And when this cruel old war is over

              D7          G
Send him home to mother's prayer
