Capo 2nd fret   
Intro:  D   A   E   A(4x)
The sDun just gAot through goEing dAown 
on a slDeepy liAttle TeExas toAwn
pDopulaAtion plEus one, miAnus oneD  
A new graDndma roAcks my siEster's kAid 
just like twDenty yAears aEgo she dAid
the sDame thing iAn that saEme chair
sAhe said tDhis one's born to runE  
 D   A   E   A(2x)
Everyday at noon like a chapel bell 
find her,Jesus,keep her well
help her do more right than wrong, 
at the end of the day
I've got five good years and a tank of gas,
fifty watts and Johnny Cash
a guitar and a broken heart just full of things to say
You tBmaught me how to stAand those tests and tDrials
but you cBman't see a desert suAnrise in the DbiEble
(Chorus):
She loDves me mAore than aEnythAing
and she wDants the woArld for meE  
Her wDest dropped oAff in EEl PaAso,
and her noDrth in AbileneE  
MDama IA'm OkEay out hAere
I've sDeen how hAard the woErld can Abe
My sDtep is sAure and I kEnow my F#mname
I'm stDrong just lAike you prEayed I'd Abe
I'm stDrong just lAike you prEayed I'd Abe
E D A E D A
If I had dDone what Ayou and dEaddy'd dAone 
I woDuld have never lAost and neEver wAon
or goDtten myAself kicEked when AI was downD  
I woDuld not knAow how to trEavel weAll 
A hunDdred bAucks and chEeap moAtels

DBmon't you cry anoAther night abDout me
In this cBmity I've got anAgels all arDound Eme
(Chorus):
She loves me more than anything
And she wants the world for me
Her west dropped of in El Paso
And her north in Abilene
Hey Mama I'm okay out here
I've seen how hard the world can be
My step is sure and I know my name
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be
I felt it eDvery tAime you prEayed for F#mme
I'm strDong just lAike you prEayed I'd Abe

F#m

Capo 2nd fret

D A E A

Intro: (4x)

D A E A

The sun just got through going down

D A E A

on a sleepy little Texas town

D A E A D

population plus one, minus one

D A E A

A new grandma rocks my sister's kid

D A E A

just like twenty years ago she did

D A E

the same thing in that same chair

A D E

she said this one's born to run

D A E A

(2x)

Everyday at noon like a chapel bell

find her,Jesus,keep her well

help her do more right than wrong,

at the end of the day

I've got five good years and a tank of gas,

fifty watts and Johnny Cash

a guitar and a broken heart just full of things to say

Bm A D

You taught me how to stand those tests and trials

Bm A D E

but you can't see a desert sunrise in the bible

(Chorus):

D A E A

She loves me more than anything

D A E

and she wants the world for me

D A E A

Her west dropped off in El Paso,

D E

and her north in Abilene

D A E A

Mama I'm Okay out here

D A E A

I've seen how hard the world can be

D A E F#m

My step is sure and I know my name

D A E A

I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be

D A E A

I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be

E D A E D A

D A E A

If I had done what you and daddy'd done

D A E A

I would have never lost and never won

D A E A D

or gotten myself kicked when I was down

D A E A

I would not know how to travel well

D A E A

A hundred bucks and cheap motels

D A E A

I would not know how to fight for my own

D E

heart next time around

Bm A D

Don't you cry another night about me

Bm A D E

In this city I've got angels all around me

(Chorus):

She loves me more than anything

And she wants the world for me

Her west dropped of in El Paso

And her north in Abilene

Hey Mama I'm okay out here

I've seen how hard the world can be

My step is sure and I know my name

I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be

D A E F#m

I felt it every time you prayed for me

D A E A

I'm strong just like you prayed I'd be

D A E A

End: (2x)
