So we talked about the song, The Prayer.
It's a strange song because I wrote it with my friend Carol Baer Seger.
And it gets played at weddings and funerals.
I know that sounds funny, but it's strange, right?
I guess in the odd case, your wedding and your funeral could be the same day.
But there's not many songs that have that effect.
You know, Ave Maria, Wind Beneath My Wings.
And this song, so I'm kind of proud of it.
I wrote it originally for Celine and Bocelli.
I'm going to do it for you right now.

watch us [Eb] where we go.
Help [Ab] us to be wise.
[C] Times [Ab] when we don't [Db] know, [Eb] let this be [Fm] our prayer.
[Bb] When you [G] will leave, [Cm] lead us to [Ab] a [Cm] place.
Guide us with [Gm] your grace.
[Ab] To a place where [Bb] we'll [Ab] be safe.
[Eb] The light you [Ab] give will [Bb]
[Eb] remain.
To remind [Ab] us that
[Bb] the eternal [Eb] star is in my [Fm] prayer.

because we worked together for 24 years.

[Bb] [G] But I'm very happy to [Cm] be with you at least [Ab] [Cm] in video.
[Gm] And I [Ab] really hope there will be an occasion to be together.
