Surfboard Chords

[Intro]
C G
 
[Verse 1]
G
I've been finding myself praying,
         C                   G
have you seen the shape I'm in?
G                            
I've been cleaning up my act 
        D
after a weekend's worth of sin
G                           
This past year I got let go 
             C                G
and then the rent got hard to pay
G                     D                G
So I'm finding myself kneeling down to pray
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G           C         G
I keep them clear and small
D                         G
Little prayers that won't hurt at all
C           G
Clear and small
D
Whispered words float through the walls
 
[Chorus]
G
Like Dear Lord
         C
I need a surfboard
C             G          
Cause I can't figure out 
                          D
how to not drown in these waves
G
Dear Lord
           C
I saw your billboard
C     G                                   D
About hell and fire and how I need to be saved
        C       D         G
So I'm praying straight away
 
[Verse 2]
G
I've been finding myself praying,
         C                   G
have you seen the shape I'm in?
G                                  
I know you haven't seen us lately 
         D
on Sunday mornings we're sleeping in
G                         
Fried from treading water 
        C                 G
in this pool you threw us in
G             D                G
Waiting for a lesson on how to swim
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G           C         G
I keep them clear and small
D                         G
Little prayers that won't hurt at all
C           G
Clear and small
D
Whispered words float through the walls
 
[Chorus]
G
Like Dear Lord
         C
I need a surfboard
C             G              
Cause I can't figure out how 
                      D
to not drown in these waves
G
Dear Lord
           C
I saw your billboard
C     G                                   D
About hell and fire and how I need to be saved
        C       D         G
So I'm praying straight away

[Chorus]
G
Like Dear Lord
         C

C             G

[Outro]
G
Dear Lord
                        C
Could you send out that surfboard
C           G             
And maybe a couple hundred 
                   D
grand so we could stay
G
Dear Lord
 
G                     C
If you strike down my landlord
C   G                    
I'll be there every week 
                       D
and not just Christmas Day
C        D       G
Kneeling down to pray
C        D       G
Kneeling down to pray
C        D       G
Kneeling down to pray
