Verse 1
(D major) Back when I was doing time
There's a night (G major) I can't (D major) forget
A mad man with knife in hand
Tried to kill me (A major) while I slept
But somehow the knife
(D major) missed its mark (G major)
And I pinned the raging man (D major)
Somehow my mama's prayers
had (A major) worked again (D major)
One (A major) night while we were driv (D major) ing
(G major) Across the mighty Texas plains (D major)
A car pulled out with its headlights out
Head on into our (A major) lane
As Deanrow swerved (D major) and missed
the car (G major)
I felt a mighty hand (D major)
Somehow my mama's prayers
(A major) had worked again (D major) (E minor)
(D major) Mama's (G major) prayers were
always with me
Through the battlefield of life (D major) (G major)
(D major) She prayed for me and said amen
In the name of Jesus (A major) Christ
From the (D major) death house in San Quentin
I walked away (G major) a better man (D major)
Somehow mama's prayers had (A major) worked
again (D major) (G major) (D major)
(A major) (A minor) (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)

Mama's (G major) prayers were

From the (D major) death house in San Quentin I
I walked away (G major) a (D major) better man
Somehow mama's prayers had
(A major) worked again (D major) (A major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
