[Verse 1: JP Cooper]
   C  GMany things you pulled me through Amand I wouldn't even know
CmThere's an army that walks with me when I Gstep out on that road
You Dask them Emevery day to accompany me Aon my way
AmWoah, you never forget to ask, you got Gbooks full of prayers
                                       C   G...
There's stacks, there's stacks, there's stacks
[Refrain: JP Cooper]
...
And if I fall, what if I fall?
AmThese hands will catch it all
CmMhhhhhGhh, Dmhhh
EmAnd if I fall, what if I fall?
AThese hands will catch it all
CmMhhhG  
[Verse 2: Stormzy]
CYo, them Gbrothers came 'round to the block and tried to spray us
AmDemons of the night, they came alive and tried to slay us
CmWhile I was in my boxers, playing COD and San Andreas
GI think I owe it all to mommy's prayersD  
EmI remember in December when they never tried to play us
AAnd tryna hit the charts without the radio is chaos
AmThen mommy sat me down and told me they could never stray us
GI charted, that was 'cause of mommy's prayers, Dyeah
[Chorus: Stormzy & JP Cooper]
GI know I'll be just fine
AmThis little light of mine
CmI know those hands will catch it Gall
Yes, I know Cthat
[Verse 3: JP Cooper]
GI witnessed harshness, I've felt Amdarkness in the night
CmShadows may chase me down but your Gwords keep them behindD  
You got me Emcovered and I had no ideaA  
You Amput your hands together and you Gdry up all of Dmy tears
[Refrain: JP Cooper]
GAnd if I fall, what if I fall?
AmThese hands will catch it all
CmMhhh, Gmhhh
[Verse 4: Stormzy]
CYo, Gbailiffs at my door because the council tried to play us
AmThen my mommy made a call and in the end, they had to pay us
CmI don't know how it worked but all I knew was we was way up
GI'm guessing it was 'cause of mommy's prayersD  
EmI've been stabbed bare times but they couldn't see the chaos
AHad a brother in the news, yeah, I see how they portray us
AmBut when I have kids, and they ever disobey us
GI'ma warn 'em about the power of their grandmoDther's prayers, yo
[Chorus: Stormzy & JP Cooper]
GI know I'll be just fine
AmThis little light of mine
CmI know those hands will catch it Gall
Yes, I know Cthat
[Bridge: JP Cooper]
GMomma's prayers they Amguide me
CmMomma's prayers they Gguide meD  
EmMomma's prayers they Aguide me
AmMomma's prayers...
[Chorus: Stormzy & JP Cooper]
GI know I'll be just fine
