♫ Intro:

C D G E7 C D G




♫ Verse 1:
C                               D
Well, he’s up before the sun, off to work out the door
G                                       E7
When he gets off on Fridays, he’s headed for the dance floor
C                            D
He is mesmerized by the beauty of the rain
G                                                       E7
And he gets real excited when the blooms come in the spring
C                                               D
Yeah
He rolls into town driving that old ford
C                       D                      G
He’s the man my mommas been prayin’ for

♫ Verse 2:
C                                       D
A man who goes out drivin’ just to listen to the radio
G                            E7
Turns the volume up as loud as it can go
C                               D
He plays a little willie, he listens to some hank
G                                       E7
Then he stops by his grandmas to sit on her porch swing
C                         D
He wakes up on Sundays, never late for church
G
Faded wranglers in the pews
G                          E7
He’s a man who knows the Lord
C                   D                 G
He’s the man my momma’s been prayin’ for.


♫ Interlude:
C D G E7 C D G


♫ Verse 3:
C                            D
He stays up late at night, just to watch the stars
G                                       E7
You can tell by the way he talks, he has a passionate heart

As I’m walkin’ down the aisle
He’s lookin’ back at me

Tears well up in his eyes, and it’s hard for him to see
C                       D
I’ve found the man, my heart will always adore
C               D                       G
He’s the man my Momma’s been prayin’ for
