[Intro 1]
[Csus4][C][Csus4][C][Csus4][C]

[Verse 1]
[Csus4]In a holi[C]day inn,
in a bar, in a corner
A [Gm]man sat staring at the knife
he'd been [F]handed
Praying for a [Dm]miracle [C]to
[Csus2]let him speak
He's got a [C]woman back home
and a [Csus4]woman in the cit[C]y
[Gm]Both of them sitting by the phone,
he can't stand [F]it
How could such a [Dm]simple man
[C]be in [Csus4]so deep?[C][Eb]
[F]He believes in the [Bb]miracle of [Eb]love[Bb][Cm]
[F]She believes the [Bb]same[Am][Dm]
He [G]believes that the [C]woman
that shares His love
[F]should sha[C]re His nam[Dsus4]e,
[D]share [C]His[F] name.[Gsus4][G][Csus4][C][Csus4][C]
Well, head say no and
his heart say maybe
He's [Gm]torn between the places
he's been sleep[F]in'
Prayin' for a [Dm]miracle [C]that
he don't get caught
He's just an old -fashioned man
with the modern
Problems [Gm]weighted down
by the secrets he's been keep[F]ing
The things he didn't [Dm]think about
[C]and the things he thought
[Eb]He bel[F]ieves in the m[Bb]iracle of love
[Eb]She [Bb]be li[Cm]eves [F]the sa[Bb]me[Am][Dm]
He [G]goes on thinking that the
[C]woman that bears his child
[F]should [C]bear [Dsus4]his name,
[D]bear [C]his nam[F]e[Gsus4][Csus4][C][Csus4][C]
There's a page turned down
in the Gideon Bible

[Verse 2]
and [Bb]God never [Gm]wro te what it
says in there.
It's the [F]name and the number
of a woman in [Dm]Memphis, [C]Tennessee.

[Verse 3]
Not [C]a chapter away from the
crossing of the Jordan,
[Gm]the tears and the words
of a man in prayer,

[Verse 4]
for [F]a woman back home
and a woman in [Dm]Memphis.[C]

[Verse 5]
[Eb]He bel[F]ieves in the m[Bb]iracle of love
[Eb]An d[Bb] she be[Cm]lieves [F]the sa[Bb]me[Am]
[Dm]He still[G] believes that the woman[C]
that shares His love
[F]Should [C]share [Dsus4]His name
[D]Fear [C]His nam[F]e[Gsus4]
