G                        C       D
  My mother watched the fireworks

G                        C       D
  From her hospital bed

Am          G            C       D
  And after it was all over

Em            D          Am
  She held me for the first time

C             D
  On the 5th

G              C       D
  Deep in Iowa country

G                        C       D
  A heavenly hideaway

Am          G            C       D
  On the shores of Lake Rathbun

  A teacher and a mechanic

G                           C    D
  Brought me into this world

Am          G            C       D
  They've loved me with all their hearts since

Em          D            Am      G
  The day I opened my eyes

C               D
  So I'd do well to tell myself
[Bridge]
C       G   D
To slow down and tell my folks I love 'em

C  G              D
  With all of my heart

     C    G  D           Am                C
Cause someday the Lord is gonna call them home

                        G
And someday they'll be gone

C       G   D              Em
To slow down and tell your folks you love 'em

C  G                D
  With all of your heart

     C    G  D           Em                Am
Cause someday the Lord is gonna call them home

                        D
And someday they'll be gone

C                G
  Cause we all live

D
  Just one life

C             D
  And mine began

Em
  Late that night
