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

                        G
Trying to raise them up right

             G
My oldest is fifteen

                             G
And I remember what that was like

          Am/C          G
Trying to deal with the drama

                         Am/C         G
Trying to figure out the questions in life

              Am/C          G
And I’ve been looking for a way to show him

       Am/C      G
How to make it alright

                     G
Then he walked in my room

                      Am/C              G
While I was saying my prayers the other night

               Am/C       G
He said, "I’ll come back later

                     Am/C        G
I can tell you got a lot on your mind"

              Am/C         G
I said, "It’s not an interruption

                  Am/C            G
You couldn’t have picked a better time

                  Am/C       G
'Cause I was just talking to Jesus

              Am/C       G
Come over and give it a try"

                        G
There’s no wrong way to do it

                       G
There’s no bad time to start

                       G
It don't have to sound pretty

                             G
Just tell Him what’s on your heart

            Am/C    G
'Cause it’s not a religion, come on

            Am/C        G
