[Verse 1]
AI made a wish upon a star
DI could have a brand new car
AGot tired of wishing
So I Estole one
ASeventeen and knew it all
DMy dreams were big but my thoughts were small
ASo many roads somehow I chose
The wErong one
[Chorus]
ABut Jesus and mama always Dloved me
AEven when the devil took Econtrol
AJesus and mama always lDoved me
This I Aknow
[Verse 2]
AI felt trapped most all my life
DFound new kinds of lows and highs
ANever been a husband but I've had a
lot of wives hEold me
AHeadstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told
DLike a wild horse that couldn't be rode
AA rainbow chaser hungry for gold
And still Esearchin'
[Chorus]
ABut Jesus and mama always Dloved me
AEven when the devil took Econtrol
AJesus and mama always lDoved me
This I Aknow
AI wish mom could see me now
DAnd how I've turned it all around
ALately I've been going down
The right Eroad
ALife's a picture that you paint
DWith blues and grays and can's and cant's
AHeaven knows I'm not a saint
But I Eknow
[Chorus]
ABut Jesus and mama always Dloved me
AEven when the devil took Econtrol
AJesus and mama always lDoved me
This I Aknow

[Verse 1]

I made a wish upon a star

I could have a brand new car

Got tired of wishing

So I stole one

Seventeen and knew it all

My dreams were big but my thoughts were small

So many roads somehow I chose

The wrong one

[Chorus]

A D

But Jesus and mama always loved me

A E

Even when the devil took control

A D

Jesus and mama always loved me

This I know

[Verse 2]

I felt trapped most all my life

Found new kinds of lows and highs

Never been a husband but I've had a

lot of wives hold me

Headstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told

Like a wild horse that couldn't be rode

A rainbow chaser hungry for gold

And still searchin'

[Chorus]

A D

But Jesus and mama always loved me

A E

Even when the devil took control

A D

Jesus and mama always loved me

This I know

I wish mom could see me now

And how I've turned it all around

Lately I've been going down

The right road

Life's a picture that you paint

With blues and grays and can's and cant's

Heaven knows I'm not a saint

But I know

[Chorus]

A D

But Jesus and mama always loved me

A E

Even when the devil took control

A D

Jesus and mama always loved me

This I know
