  [A] Hoping,
  And [D/A] praying, Lord, that she could under[A]stand me,
  But I [G] didn't [D] know her [A] name.
  
  [E] She took my hand in hers and [D] told me I was [A] wrong.
  [E] She said, you're gonna be all right boy, [D] oh just as [F#m] long [E]
  As you keep on [A] growing, [D] keep on [A] growing, [D] keep on [A]
  growing. [D]

       and it's all because of [F#m] you. [E]
