G


Verse 1:
         D
He don't ask for money
         Em7
He don’t ask for fame
          G
But he'll hit his knees and talk to God
        A
'Bout a need for a little rain
                D
To fall on them fresh sown seeds
             Em7
And grow ’em high up in the air
         G              A                           D  G
That's a farm life red, white, and blue collar prayer

Verse 2:
              D
She works for tips and grins
       Em7
At the diner on Dowdy Road
       G
And if you look close under her loose clothes
       A
Little junior's starting to show
                    D
She prays that when he comes along, he's healthy and strong
    Em7
And learns to dodge the devil's snare
           G            A                           D
That's her bedtime red, white, and blue collar prayer


Chorus:
          G
Might not see them every Sunday
A       Bm
In that little white clapboard church
       A/C#      D
'Cause she'll be serving biscuits and honey
            A
He’ll be in overalls and tractor dirt
          Bm                   A
But I bet my last dime they’ll both take the time
   G                 D/F#
To talk to the man upstairs
      Em   D/F#      G               A             G
For a real life red, white, and blue collar prayer


Verse 3:
               D
She'd give you her last smile
       Em7
And a "bless your heart" to boot
              G
He’d give the shirt right off his busted back
     A
To a drifter passing through
              D
They pray for peace overseas and those in harm's way
           Em7
To make it home safe from over there
         G
That's a damn right, stars and stripes
     A                         D
Red, white, and blue collar prayer


Chorus:
          G
Might not see them every Sunday
A       Bm
In that little white clapboard church
       A/C#      D
'Cause she'll be serving biscuits and honey
            A
He’ll be in overalls and tractor dirt
          Bm                   A
But I bet my last dime they’ll both take the time
   G                 D/F#
To talk to the man upstairs
      Em   D/F#      G               A      Em7
For a real life red, white, and blue collar prayer

Yeah, I bet my last dime they'll both take the time
   G                 D/F#
To talk to the man upstairs
      Em   D/F#      G                             A  G
For a real life red, white, and blue collar prayer
