   Would love the lyrics to "Let Us Pray". Great song with a hearty backbeat.

   Don't know anything about chords but here's my first stab at the lyrics.....feel free to help out.....I often fuck up some part of them!
   
   LET US PRAY
   
   
   I don't know, I can't remember when
   I don't know, how long it's been
   Since I got down on my knees and I prayed
   for forgiveness that never came
   I get down on my knees and pray
   maybe I never did, but maybe I should.
   
   It's been too long, too long to recall
   It's been too long, for us to know it all
   We got down on our knees and prayed
   for forgiveness that never came
   We get down on our knees and pray
   maybe we never did, but maybe we should.
   
   What went wrong? Where are you now?
   We've been calling, calling you out
   Yeah we're down on our knees and praying
   for forgiveness that never came
   Yeah we're down on our knees and praying
   Maybe that ain't the way, maybe that ain't the way
   Maybe that ain't the way, maybe that ain't the way
   So get up all you fools, kick out your stools and start dancing
   It's this life that we live, it's a celebration take some chances
   Yeah get out of your seats and pray that forgiveness done already come
   Yeah get out of your seats and pray, do it again, do it again
   do it again, do it again
   
   Yeah get out of your seats and pray that forgiveness done already came
   Yeah get out of your seats and pray, do it again, do it again
   ,do it again, do it again
   do it again, do it again

   "So get up all you folks, kick out your stools and start dancing
   It's this life that we live, it's a celebration take some chances"
   I think that Folks is Fools....
   thanks Ant for doing this... I wish I were better at it, but I enjoy strumming along to what you have put up.

   Pretty sure it's "forgiveness that never forgave" but I could be wrong.
   
   And "folks" is "fools" as badlab says.

   I really like this song the more I hear it... I put the "this life that we live, it's a celebration take some chances" on the front wall of my classroom... it looks good there.

   I have to dig out my Jim Thorpe CD from bgreen 'cause all I have in my itunes is the 1/15 Hartford show. I'll go with fools but I'm def not hearing "forgave" hopped. Then again, these new songs morph a tad from break-out to finished sometimes.

   The songs definitely evolve. Check out Rives Theater 2011-04-15. Track 11. "Forgave" is clear as a bell.

   Back a few comments...I confused "Dark Skies" (capo 2nd fret) with "My Wasted Life". Blake was forgetting the capo for a few shows when playing "Dark Skies", thus the reference.

    Bump for a memory lapse...couldn't remember (and a search here doesn't bring it up) if we pointed out that their official site has lyrics (and chords) for most released recordings now.
