[Intro 1]
[G][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Grandma used to pray out loud
By her bed every night
[G]To me, it sounded like mumbling
Like she was out of her mind
[G]She said, "Boy, this kind of praying
Is what saved my life
[G]You outta try it some time"
And now I know she was right
She was [C]talking to Jesus

[Pre-chorus 1]
[G]
She was [C]talking to [G]Jesus
She'd been [C]talking to [G]Jesus
For [C]all of [G]her [C]life

[Verse 2]
[G]Mama used to drag me to [C]church
[G]Sunday mornings and Wednesday nig[C]hts
[G]Khaki pants and a polo shi[C]rt
[G]Boy, I put up a fig[C]ht
[G]She said,
"Son, one day you'll thank [C]me
[G]For having God in your lif[C]e"

[Verse 3]
[G]now
Trying to [C]raise them up [G]right
My [C]oldest is [G]fifteen
And I remember [C]what that was [G]like
Trying to [C]deal with the [G]drama
Trying to figure out the [C]questions [G]in life
And I've been [C]looking for a [G]way to show him
How to [C]make it [G]alright
Then he [C]walked in my room

[Verse 4]
[G]
While I was saying my pray[C]ers the other [G]night
He said, "I'll [C]come back [G]later
I can tell you got a [C]lot on your [G]mind"
I said it's [C]not an inter[G]ruption
You couldn't have [C]picked a better [G]time

Come over and [C]give it a [G]try
