Jesus And Mama Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

GI made a wish upon a star

CI could have a brand new car

GGot tired of wishing

 So I Dstole one

GSeventeen and knew it all

CMy dreams were big but my thoughts were small

GSo many roads somehow I chose

 The wDrong one

GBut Jesus and mama always lCoved me

GEven when the devil took Dcontrol

GJesus and mama always lCoved me G D

 This I Gknow

I felt trapped most all my life

Found new kinds of lows and highs

Never been a husband but I've had a

lot of wives To hold me

Headstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told

Like a wild horse that couldn't be rode

A rainbow chaser hungry for gold

And still searchin'

Repeat Chorus

I wish mom could see me now

And how I've turned it all around

Lately I've been going down

The right road

Life's a picture that you paint

With blues and grays and can's and cant's

Heaven knows I'm not a saint

But I know

Repeat Chorus
