[Verse 1]
F C
I kept my momma up late
Dm
On her knees as she prayed for her boy
Bb
Who was hanging on by a thread
F C Dm
I was acting a fool, I was skipping on school
Bbm
Getting high as a kite, gonna wind up dead
F C
She believed I'd return like the prodigal
Dm Bb
Pray to God every day for a miracle
F C Dm Bb
No, I'm not a lost cause, she wouldn't give up on
[Chorus]
F C Dm Bb
And I, I never would have made it
F C Dm Bb
I never would have made it, Without you, you, you
F C Dm Bb
And I, I never would have made it
F C Dm Bb
I never would have made it thru, Without you, you, you
[Verse 2]
F C Dm
I was coming home late,Covering every state
Bb
In a van with a band barely getting paid
F C
And the love of my life
Dm
She was up through the night
Bb
With the kids fighting tears hoping for a break
F C
By my side with a love unconditional
Dm Bb
Had the faith to believe for a miracle
F C Dm Bb
No, I'm not a lost cause, she wouldn't give up on me
[Chorus]
F C Dm Bb
And I, I never would have made it
F C Dm Bb
I never would have made it, Without you, you, you
F C Dm Bb
And I, I never would have made it
F C Dm Bb
I never would have made it thru, Without you, you, you
[Bridge]
C
Tell me where, tell me where would I be
Dm Bb
Tell me where would I be without you
C
If you hadn't been praying for me
Dm Bb
and standing by me, Tell me, oh-oh-oh-ohh
C
Tell me where, tell me where would I be
Dm Bb
Tell me where would I be without you
C
If you hadn't been praying for me
Dm Bb
and standing by me (hold)
F C
I'd be lost without you, without you - hold
