[Verse 1]
[D]Let the light
[A]shine on my mama
She’s been [Bm]worried [D]‘bo[Bm]ut me
And [A]I can t[G]ell s[D]he’s tired
Walk my [A]brother in a straight line
I know [Bm]he’s only sixteen
[A]But he’s been playing [G]with fire
[D]Give my gra[A]ndpa a little
peace and quiet
I can [Bm]feel the years of hard
[A]work in [G]his hands
[D]Make my days pas[A]s just
a little bit slower
[Bm]I’ve been runnin’ so fast I’ve
[A]forgotten who [G]I am

[Verse 2]
[D]And so I go where the green grass grows
[A]The weeds are high and
the sun hangs low
[Bm]Look to the sky and I say, hello
Like it’s the [G]very first [A]time
[D]It doesn’t matter how long it’s been
[A]I can talk to God like he’s my best friend
[Bm]Take my heart lay it down
[A]again [G]right there
In a [A]dirt [D]road prayer
[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]
He’s a good guy
[A]Looks dad in the eye
And I [Bm]wonder if you [A]made
him just [G]for me
But before I fall give me patience
[A]Until you show me where to take this

[Verse 4]
[D]And so I go where the green grass grows
[A]The weeds are high and
the sun hangs low
[Bm]Look to the sky and I say, hello
Like it’s the [G]very first [A]time
[D]It doesn’t matter how long it’s been
[A]I can talk to God like he’s my best friend
[Bm]Take my heart lay it down agai[A]n righ[G]t there
In a [A]dirt [D]road [A]prayer
[Bm][G][A]

[Verse 5]
[G]It’s good to know [A]I can
[D]Always go where the green grass grows
[A]The weeds are high
and the sun hangs low
[Bm]Look to the sky and I say [G]hello
[A]Oh, yeah
[D]It doesn’t matter how long it’s been
[A]I can talk to God like he’s my best friend
[Bm]Take my heart and lay
it down [A]again [G]right there
In a [A]dirt [D]road [A]prayer
Yeah, yeah
[Bm]
