[Verse 1]
[Asus4]Well you always[D]
[Asus4]had my back[D][Asus4][D]
And [Gsus2]every tim[D]e I'd fal[A]l
[Asus4]From bus [Bm]ted knees
To broken hearts
Well, [A]we'd been through it all
[D]You made [Asus4]me walk the li[D]ne
Every time I'm [G]coming
[Gsus2]off the track
[Asus4]My mother[D] ha[A]s a[Bm]lways been[A]
my better [Asus4]half
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Asus4]
[D]To my first [Asus4]shoe you [D]tied
To my [Gsus2]first nig[G]ht[Gsus2]
in [Asus4]jail[D]
[Asus4]You walke[Bm]d me through
hand in hand
Through the [A]rainbows
Through the hell
[D]They say [Asus4]I've got your[D] eyes
I say [Gsus2]I've got [G]more[Gsus2]
[D]than [Asus4]that[D]
[Asus4]My mother[Bm]'s always been[A]
my better [Asus4]half

Slow [A]down the drinking
And lay [G]down those cigarettes
Better start [A]thinking
About [G]those things
