Intro Chords: Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7 Em C D G
G C/G G
Daddy never went to church on Sunday
G C/G G
He said that's one thing I'll never do
C G
But mama never gave up she said one day
Am7 C Dsus D
He'll be sitting here beside me and you
G C/G G
I can still hear mama softly talking
G C/G G
with her tears falling on her folded hands
C G
So that Easter Sunday Daddy walked in
Am7 C Dsus D
That's when I began to understand
Chorus:
Em C G D
When mama prayed, good things happen
Em C Dsus D
When mama prayed, lives were changed
Em D/F#
Not much more than five foot tall
G C Em7 Am D
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
Em Cmaj7 Em C D G
When mama prayed
G C/G G
Seventeen and wild I hit the bottle
G C/G G
Doing anything I dang well pleased
C G
Burning down life's highway at full throttle
Am7 C Dsus D
While mama burned a candle on her knees
G C/G G
Then one night I came home half sober
G C/G G
I saw mama kneeling in the den
C G
As I listened, her and Jesus talked it over
Am7 C Dsus D
And I knew my restless days were 'bout to end
Chorus:
Em C G D
When mama prayed, good things happen
Em C Dsus D
When mama prayed, lives were changed
Em D/F#
Not much more than five foot tall
G C Em7 Am D
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
G
When mama prayed
Bridge:
Bm C
It isn't like everyone of them got answered
G D
But the times they weren't it seems to me were rare
Bm C Em7
You almost felt sorry for the devil
Am C Dsus D
Cause heaven knows he didn't have a prayer
Em C G D
When mama prayed
Em C Dsus D
Em D/F#
Not much more than five foot tall
G C Em7 Am D
But mountains big and small, crumbled all away
Em C Em7
When mama prayed
Am Dsus D
They crumbled all away
