1st verse: 
Em                D               Em                 D
First time that I saw her she had white doves in her eyes
    Em              D           Am         Em
She spoke to me but I could not reply, not reply
Em        D          Em            D
She was a stranger I had known for years
    Em               D           Am           Em
She brought to me so many smiles and tears, smiles and tears

    C              D
The two hands of a prayer,

2nd verse:
 Em               D                Em            D
Tired maid slowly drifts into the past, into the past
    Em                 D         Am            Em
And finds a home where all echoes rest, echoes rest
Em         D          Em      D
She softly kissed my mind, my mind, 
    Em             D                Am           Em
And whispered what will we do with time, do with time

    C              D
The two hands of a prayer, 
                  D -  C          D
Together like the two  hands of a prayer
                  D -  C          D
Together like the two  hands of a prayer
                  D -  C          D       D
Together like the two  hands of a prayer

3rd verse:
   Em          D                Em            D
Am I the man I choose, chose to be, choose to be
   Em           D         Am          Em
Or just the man I used to be, used to be
   Em          D             Em            D
Am I the man I want, want to be, I want to be
     Em                 D        Am           Em
This question, it keeps haunting me, haunting me
