Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I can't sell my mama short for loving me
I guess that's why she let me go so far
[C]Mama tried to stop me short of stealin'
I [G]guess that's why I had to steal that car

[Verse 2]
She [G]told me not to smoke it, but I did
And it took me far [C]away
[D]I turned out to be,
the only hell my mama ever raised
[G]

[Verse 3]
Well, I rolled into Atlanta,
stolen tags and almost out of gas
I [C]had to get some money,
and lately I learned how to get it fast
Those [G]neon lights were callin' me,
somehow, I had to get [C]downtown
I [D]reached into the glove box,
another liquor store went [G]down

[Verse 4]
I [G]say, "Precious Memories",
take me back to the [C]good old days
I [D]hear my mama singin',
"Rock of Ages, Cleft [G]for Me"
She tried to turn me on to Jesus,
but I turned on to the Dev[C]il's ways
[D]And I turned out to be,
the only hell my mama ever raised
[G][Ab]

[Verse 5]
They put those handcuffs on me,
Lordy, I fought to resist
[Db]They just clamped 'em tighter,
'til that metal bit into my wrist
They took my [Ab]belt and my billfold,
my fingerprints and a profile of [Db]my face
[Eb]They locked away,
the only hell my mama ever raised
[Ab]

[Verse 6]
"Precious Memories",
take me back to the good [Db]old days
I [Eb]hear my mama singin',
"Rock of Ages, Cleft [Ab]for Me"
She tried to turn me on to Jesus,
but I turned on to the Dev[Db]il's ways
And [Eb]I turned out to be,
the only hell my mama ever raised
[Ab]

[Verse 7]
[A]
She tried to turn me on to Jesus,
but I turned on to the Dev[D]il's ways
And [E]I turned out to be,
the only hell my mama ever raised
[A]
