Chords with lyrics
Capo 2nd fret
Intro: D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA (4x)
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
The sun just got through going down
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
on a sleepy little Texas town
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD
population plus one, minus one
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
A majorA new grandma rocks my sister's kid
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
just like twenty years ago she did
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
the same thing in that same chair
A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
she said this one's born to run
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA (2x)
Everyday at noon like a chapel bell
find her,Jesus,keep her well
help her do more right than wrong,
at the end of the day
I've got five good years and a tank of gas,
fifty watts and Johnny Cash
a guitar and a broken heart just full of things to say
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
You taught me how to stand those tests and trials
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
but you can't see a desert sunrise in the bible
(Chorus):
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
She loves me more than anything
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
and she wants the world for me
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
Her west dropped off in El Paso,
D MajorD E MajorE
and her north in Abilene
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
Mama I'm Okay out here
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I've seen how hard the world can be
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
My step is sure and I know my name
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
E MajorE D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD A augmentedA
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
If I had done what you and daddy'd done
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I would have never lost and never won
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD
or gotten myself kicked when I was down
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I would not know how to travel well
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
A majorA hundred bucks and cheap motels
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I would not know how to fight for my own
D MajorD E MajorE
heart next time around
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
Don't you cry another night about me
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
In this city I've got angels all around me
(Chorus):
She loves me more than anything
And she wants the world for me
Her west dropped of in El Paso
And her north in Abilene
Hey Mama I'm okay out here
I've seen how hard the world can be
My step is sure and I know my name
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
I felt it every time you prayed for me
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
End: D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA (2x)
