         Em    D       G
Where my mama comes to me

         Em     D               G
And she kneels down over by the window

     C                D
And says a prayer for me

         Em   D      G
I got my own way of prayin’

     C           D
And everyone’s begun

        Em   D    C
With a sou thern accent
