lyrics

Like a Prayer

G C
Jenny starts to wonder if a woman's right to choose
D C G
will go the way of handwritten love letters.
Steve says maybe it's time to revive the ERA.
We all agree, but we know better.

REFRAIN
C D
Johnny picks up that old guitar
G Em
and our voices settle in there
C D G
(to that) old familiar song like a prayer.

Betty says her partner, Kris, told her news of the adoption.
It's illegal in this state, the lawyer said.
Frank offers to marry Betty, just to put the papers through,
then the child could have a loving home with 2 moms instead.

refrain

Peter says the oil companies have finally got Alaska.
His friend up there doesn't have the heart to stick around.
To see the end of the caribou and the last wild place on earth.
The bill's not even passed but they're clearing ground.

refrain

C D G Em
Young folks say we've failed in our hopes to change the world.
C Am D7
That compromise is our Achilles heel.
C D G Em
Yes, radical changed to rational, or maybe we just got tired.
C D G
But our love of truth still governs how we feel.

Refrain
