D                    D         G
Just the other night,    at a hometown football game
   D         A      Bm Bm7 Em                     A
My wife and I    ran into     my old high school flame
    G              F#m              Bm         A     G D
And as I introduced   them, the past  came back to me
           Em                D          G              Asus4
And I couldn't help but think    of the way things used to     be
A D               D         G
   She was the one    that I'd wanted for all times
        D         A         Bm  Bm7        Em                   A
And each night I'd    spend prayin'    that God  would make her mine
    G                 F#m            Bm        A         G D
And if he'd only grant   me this wish  I wished back then
    Em            D          Asus4
I'd never ask for anything again

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
A                  D  F#m      G            Asus4
 Sometimes I thank God   for unanswered prayers  
  D      A           Bm  Bm7       Em          A
Remember when you're talkin'    to the man upstairs
                D             D7           G                 E7
And just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
        D                   Bm Em        A          D  D
Some of God's greatest gifts     are unanswered prayers

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G Asus4 A    D                  D         G
         She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
            D             A           Bm   Bm7   Em                    A
And I could tell that time    had changed  me,    in her eyes too it seemed
            G                 F#m                   Bm           A      G D
We tried to talk about the old   days, there wasn't much we could recall
            Em                   D        Asus4   A
I guess the Lord knows what he's doin', after     all

[Bridge]
---------------------
    G                           F#m          Bm
And as she walked away, well, I looked at my wife
             Em                      D              G               Asus4
And then and there I thanked the good    Lord, for the gifts in my life

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
A                  D  F#m      G            Asus4
 Sometimes I thank God   for unanswered prayers  
  D      A           Bm  Bm7       Em          A
Remember when you're talkin'    to the man upstairs
                D             D7           G                 E7
And just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
        D                   Bm Em        A
Some of God's greatest gifts     are unanswered...
        D                    Bm            Em        A
Some of God's greatest gifts,  are all too often unanswered...
        D                    Bm Em        A          D  D G Asus4 A D
Some of God's greatest gifts,     are unanswered prayers
