Let the light shine on my mama

She's been worried 'bout me

Walk my brother in a straight line

Give my grandpa a little peace and quiet
Am G F
I can feel the years of hard work in his hands
C G
Make my days pass just a little bit slower

I've been runnin' so fast
G F
I've forgotten who I am

The weeds are high and the sun hangs low

Look to the sky and I say hello

It doesn't matter how long it's been

I can talk to God like he's my best friend

Take my heart lay it down again right there

In a dirt road prayer

He's a good guy

Looks dad in the eye
Am G F
And I wonder if you made him just for me

But before I fall give me patience

Until you show me where to take this
