When I was sixteen, that set of keys was a pair of wings
E                                         A
Daddy, pretty please, can I take her out tonight?
                               E
I swear I won't get her over fifty-five.
 
With Back in Black racing through my veins, last thing I thought
                                  A
Was if flipping this thing don't get me killed.
                       E
I'm pretty sure my old man will.
E                   B                                  E   A
And seeing his face when the wrecker hauled my freedom away
       B                   E
That's how I learned to pray.
 
 
   B
It wasn't in a church, with a chapter and a verse
     A                  E
Some preacher made sure everybody heard
   B                                      F#m
Or just some words somebody taught me to say.
 
 
       E
I was living like I was long from the world, mama always said
                                  A
It'd take a special girl to get a hold of me,
                        E
But I never let one get close to me.
 
 
E
The man upstairs must've heard her prayers,
                            Abm            A
Cause I looked up, you were standin' there waitin' on me
              E
Like you were made for me.
      B                                   A
And I knew right then and there, I'd been saved
           B             Em  E
And that's how I learned to pray.
 
 
   B
It wasn't in a church, with a chapter and a verse

      B
I can fold my hands and bow my head,
            A                     E
But there's just some things that can't be said
F#m                      Abm            A
Without a little walk on water kind of faith.
                              E
And that's how I learned to pray.

Have you ever looked up at the stars in the sky, felt a tug at your heart
                        A
Didn't know why but you just knew
E   A                               E
Someone is up there lookin' out for you.
              B                     E   A
Well you know just what I mean when I say Grace.
       B                  E
That's how I learned to pray.
