Let the light shine on my mama
Bm
She's been worried about me
A G
And I can tell she's tired
D A
Walk my brother in a straight line

I know he's only 16
A G
But he's been playing with fire
Bm A
Give my grandpa a little peace and quiet
Bm A G
I can feel the years of hard work in his hands
D A
Make my days pass just a little bit slower
Bm
I've been runnin' so fast
A G
I've forgotten who I am

And so I go where the green grass grows
A
The weeds are high and the sun hangs low
Bm A
Look to the sky and I say, hello
G A
Like it's the very first time
D
It doesn't matter how long it's been
A
I can talk to God like he's my best friend
Bm A G
Take my heart lay it down again right there
In a dirt road prayer
D A

He's a good guy
A
Looks dad in the eye
Bm A G
And I wonder if you made him just for me
G
But before I fall give me patience
A
Until you show me where to take this
D
And so I go where the green grass grows
A
The weeds are high and the sun hangs low
Bm A
Look to the sky and I say, hello
G A
Like it's the very first time
D
It doesn't matter how long it's been
A
I can talk to God like he's my best friend
Bm A G
Take my heart lay it down again right there
In a dirt road prayer
D A Bm A G A

It's good to know I can

Always go where the green grass grows

The weeds are high and the sun hangs low

It doesn't matter how long it's been

I can talk to God like he's my best friend
