Hank Williams – I Heard My Mother Praying For Me (Guitar)

A                    D        A
Last night as I lay down to sleep,

    E             A
I heard someone began to weep.

           D            A
Then I got up, just to see

                     E        A
I heard my mother praying for me.

A                D      A
She was kneeling by her bed,

      E                  A
And tears of pain were being shed.

               D                     A
She said, 'Dear God, please hear my plea'.

                     E        A
I heard my mother praying for me.

A               D       A
I got my Bible and set out,

     E           A
And in the Holy Book I found

            D            A
The way to end this misery.

                      E         A
Thank God my mother prayed for me.

A              D        A
I read it on into the night,

     E             A
And soon began to see the light

            D                A
And now at last my soul is free.

                      E        A
Thank God my mother prayed for me
