Intro 
D   E   F#m   A 
D   E   F#m   A 



[Verso 1]
 
D                   E 
 Ain't walked that line near good as I'm supposed to 
F#m                   A 
   Been on the wrong side more times than I'd have hoped to 

D                                E 
I've drug some love through the dirt 
                      F#m 
Took some whiskey too far 
                   A 
If I got what I deserved 
                     D 
I'd be alone in the dark 
 


[Refrão]
 
                    E                        F#m 
I should be paying harder for my list of mistakes 
                             A 
Lord knows I've been down a road 
                         D 
That shoud've ended in flames 
                    E 
I was headed for a rock-bottom basement 
F#m 
Somehow, I escaped it 

A 
I think my mama's praying 
D                  E 
If she is, then I guess 

There's something in her "Amen" 
F#m 
Ain't too gone for the saving 

A                     D    E       F#m 
I think my mama's prayin'    i-i-i-in 
 


[Verso 2]
 
A                     D 
I think my mama's prayin' 
                     E 
That I keep staying safe in a world that wants to wreck me 
F#m                          A 
That I put it straight in reverse when the devil tries to test me 
D                 E 
That I'm on that straight and narrow 
F#m                           A 
God bless her, 'cause if I'm honest I know

[Verso 3]
 
D                                E

                      F#m

                   A 
If I got what I deserved 
                           D 
I'd still be there in the dark
