[Verse 1]
G                               B7
All my prayer warriors, gather near
         C                       G
I got specific information for selective ears
     C                    C#m           G            E7
It's big, it's bad, it's really sad, it hurts me to tell
     G                    C#m               D
I'm certain there's some flirting with the fiery flames of hell

[Chorus]
          G                            B7
I'm only telling you this, so you will know how to pray
E7
I ain't one to gossip, that just isn't my way
        C                        C#m          G             E7
But you need to know all of the details, what lead them astray
         G             C#m            G                 C#m  G
I'm only telling you this so you will know how to pray

[Verse 2]
                                   B7
Now, stop me if you've heard this, and I'll hush
    C                              G
But it's enough to make a hardened baptist blush
     C                  C#m             G         C#m
It's sick, it's wicked, really twisted, can you believe
     G                   C#m                D
I'm certain there's some flirting, like the serpent tempted eve

[Chorus]
         G                             B7
I'm only telling you this, so you will know how to pray
E7
I ain't one to gossip, that just isn't my way
        C                        C#m           G           E7
But you need to know all of the details, what lead them astray
         G
I'm only telling you this so you will know how to pray

[Chorus 2]
                 B7
Whoa pray, pray pray
    G                           D       G
The church is on the mainline, everbody pray
    C                                         G        E7
But please don't tell the preacher, don't you give me away
         G            C#m             G
I'm only telling you this so you will know how to pray
                B7
Whoa pray, sing pray
   C                             D         G
We need to start a prayer chain, everybody pray
   C                                    G           E7
I wouldn't want him to know that I had something to say
          G              C            G             C
But I'm telling you this so you will know how to pray

[Outro]
                    C#m               G             E7
We all know better, bless our hearts, but we do it anyway
C#m       G
I'm only telling you this so you will know how to pray
