Verse 1:
D                                 G
She still keeps that Bible by her bed
A                      D
 And reads her verses every night
                             G
Still tries to live by those words in red

And she checks in on me least once a week
      A                         D
Every Sunday afternoon religiously
D
Says she talks to God about me
             G
Yeah, that's just what Momma's do

These days it's a little more, thank you, Lord
           G
Instead of askin' him for help
A
Cause these days I'm a little more
      D
Put together Lord
           G
Instead of putin' her through hell

Every night it's still Amen

I don't keep her up, not like I did back then
      A                           D
Don't need no help no more makin' rent
D
And I got someone who loves me
    G
The way she'd want him to
