Bridge 
Am 
I pray you get home safe 
C 
I pray ? 
Am 
I pray you don't lose faith, pray you don't lose faith 
C 
Laughing at that ? momma, I pray you see old age 
Am 
I've seen you go to work and come home and go to work 
C 
And not moan about your worth 
C 
Because there's nothing in your purse 
Am 
But that money don't define you 
Am 
Plus, you hate being lied to 
       C 
That's probably why there's no fella beside you

But besides that, I'm beside you 
Am 
Hospital bedside, thinking how the fuck can I ? you 
Am 
There's no quittin', there's no quittin' 
C 
What good's a fire in the booth if I could burn with those lyrics 
Am 
Clock's tickin' and it's getting hard for me 
C 
They just said my mother's got heart disease 
Am 
Man, I swear I felt that in my artery 
C 
If we could swap I'd give you every part of me 
Am 
Every lesson that you taught me was priceless 
C 
I mean it's funny how you add value when you're a minus 
Am 
Corned beef sandwich for dinner when we were ? 
C 
Had that shit time after time, I guess it's timeless 
Am 
The candles stayed lit when the electric gave in 
C 
I kept our fire burning, mom, we never gave in 
Am 
And if the kingdom's coming man it be best waiting 
 C 
'Cause I ain't leaving your side, it's gonna be a long night
