[Intro] G / / Gsus | G / / Gsus [Verse 1]
G                          Gsus
 Grandma used to pray out loud

G                        Gsus
 By her bed every night

G                              Gsus
 To me it sounded like mumbling

G                             Gsus
 Like she was out of her mind

G                                    Gsus
 She said, "Boy, this kind of praying

G                     Gsus
 Is what saved my life

G                           Gsus
 You oughta try it some time"

G
 And now I know she was right
[Chorus]

G                              Gsus
 Mama used to drag me to church

G                                    Gsus
 Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights

G                            Gsus
 Khaki pants and a polo shirt

G                            Gsus
 Y'all know, I put up a fight

G                                        Gsus
 She said, "Son, one day you’ll thank me

G                            Gsus
 For having God in your life"

G                              Gsus
 And yeah, I know she was right

G
 Yeah, my mama was right
[Chorus]
               Gsus       G
'Cause now I’m talking to Jesus

           Gsus       G
She got me talking to Jesus

           Gsus       Em7
She got me talking to Jesus

         D       Cadd9

                 G
What a friend we have in Jesus

[Verse 3]
                     G
I've got three of my own now

          Gsus          G
Trying to raise them up right

   Gsus      G
My oldest is fifteen

               Gsus          G
And I remember what that was like

          Gsus          G
Trying to deal with the drama

                         Gsus      G
Trying to figure out the questions in life

              Gsus          G
And I’ve been looking for a way to show him

       Gsus      G
How to make it alright
[Verse 4]
        Gsus         G
Then he walked in my room

                      Gsus              G
While I was saying my prayers the other night

               Gsus       G
He said, "I’ll come back later

                     Gsus        G
I can tell you got a lot on your mind"

              Gsus         G
I said, "It’s not an interruption, oh no

                  Gsus            G
You couldn’t have picked a better time

                  Gsus       G
'Cause I was just talking to Jesus

              Gsus       G
Come over and give it a try"
[Chorus] N.C. We started talking to
G
Jesus

           Gsus       G
We started talking to Jesus

           Gsus       Em7       D    Cadd9
We started talking to Jesus, oh woah, oh

                        G
And now he’s talking to Jesus

                Gsus        G
Thank God, he’s talking to Jesus

            Gsus       Em7
I hope he’s talking to Jesus

         D         Cadd9
For the rest of his life, yeah, come on

[Verse 5]
                        G
There’s no wrong way to do it

         Gsus        G
Ain't a bad place to start

         Gsus        G
It ain't gotta sound pretty

              Gsus          G
Just tell Him what’s on your heart

            Gsus    G
'Cause it’s not a religion, oh no no

            Gsus        G
'Cause it’s more like a friendship

       Gsus          G
So just talk to your Father

Like you are His kid

[Verse 6]
                         G
Now we're sitting at the Ryman

               Gsus   G
On an ordinary Sunday night

               Gsus            G
These past few weeks have been heavy

             Gsus     G
Been hard to put on a smile

                Gsus       G
And I know that life feels crazy

                            Gsus         G
But the darker the day, the brighter the light

             Gsus       G
So just keep talking to Jesus

                 Gsus          G
The only way the truth and the light
