Jesus And Mama

	  		{Intro} 
 
G C G C 
 
    G 
1.I made a wish upon a star 
  C 
  I could have a brand new car 
   G 
  Got tired of wishing 
         C 
  So I stole one 
 
   G 
  Seventeen and knew it all 
       C 
  My dreams were big but my thoughts were small 
    G 
  So many roads somehow I chose 
        C            D 
  The wrong one 
 
 
       G 
C.But Jesus and mama always loved me 
  C 
  Even when the devil took control 
   G                              C 
  Jesus and mama always loved me 
    D 
  This I know 
 
 
2.I felt tried most all my life 
  Found new kinds of lows and highs 
  Never been a husband but I 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 
 
 
3.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 cans and can'ts 
  Heaven knows I'm not a saint 
  But I know 
 
 
  Repeat Chorus
