[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][D]
[Am][Am][B][Em]
[Am][Am][Am][D]
[Am][Am][B][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]She takes the back road
and the [Am]lane
Past the school that has not [Am]changed
In all this [D]time
[Am]She thinks of when the boy was young[Am]
All the battles she [B]had won
[Em]Just to give him [Am]life
That man
She [Am]loved that man
[Am]For all his life[D]
[Am]But now we meet to take him flow[Am]ers
And only god [B]knows [Em]why

[Pre-chorus 1]
[D]For what's the use
in pressing [B]palms
When children fade in mother's [F#m]arms
It's a cruel world,
[F]we've so much to lose
[D]And what we hav[B]e to learn,
[E]we rarely choose
[Am]So if it's god w[Gm]ho took her son[D]
He [Dm]cannot be the [E]one
living in [Am]her mind

[Chorus 1]
[F]Take car[G]e my lov[Am]e, she said
[F]Don't thi[G]nk that God[Am] is dead
[F]Take car[G]e my lov[Am]e, she said
[F]You hav[G]e been lov[C]ed

[Interlude 1]
[Am][Am][Am][D]

[Verse 2]
[Am]If I was weak,[Am]
forgive me
[Am]But I was terr[D]i- fied
[Am]You brushed my eyes
with [Am]an- gel's wings,
full of [B]love
The kind that [Em]makes devils cry
[Am]So these days
My [Am]life has changed
[Am]And I'll be fine[D]
(and I'll be [Am]fine)
But she just sits and counts the [Am]hours
Searching [B]for her [Em]crime

[Pre-chorus 2]
[D]So what's the use
in pressing [B]palms
If you won't keep such love from [F#m]harm
It's a cruel world,
[F]you've so much to prove
[D]And heaven hel[B]p the ones
[E]who wait for you
[Am]No, I've no daug[Gm]hters,
I've no [D]sons
Guess [Dm]I'm the only o[E]ne
living in [Am]my life

[Chorus 2]
[F]Take car[G]e my lov[Am]e, she said
[F]Don't thi[G]nk that God[Am] is dead
[F]Take car[G]e my lov[Am]e, she said
[F]You hav[G]e been lov[C]ed
