(ver. 1)
Parson James
[Verse 1] (Am F C G)
Am                    F
Mama, I sinned again, I went to bed with another man
C                               G
Know the town won't understand, are you still gon' hold my hand?
Am                           F
Say mama, I broke the rules, gotta face these holy fools
C                                      G
It felt cool when they heard the news, guess I better give my son the shoes

Am                       F
Oh mama, what's the use? We all saw what they done to you
C                       
You felt stares when they heard the truth
G
Say, felt stares when they heard the truth
Am                        F
Oh mama, we're not alone, don't know what they do at home
C                                  G
But everybody got a bag of bones, hey, oh we all got a bag of bones


[Pre-Chorus] (Am F C G D)
Am                F                 C               G
Arms are shaking, walls are caving, yeah
Am                   C               G                D
Hold your blessings, I'm confessing, yeah


[Chorus] ( Am F C G )
Am                            F
Somebody say a prayer for me, cause papa didn't preach
C                             G
And if he did, I'd still be wrong
Am                                   F
And I've been down on both my knees, why don't you wanna see?
C                                G
Why don't you wanna see?         I'm a sinner like you


[Verse 2]( Am F C G )
Am                F
Father I testify, don't wanna tell another lie
C                               G
So will you look me in the eye, or am I out of sight and out of mind?
Am                           F
Say father, I'm not ashamed, I got no one to blame
C                     G
So I go naming names if all if us are just the same


[Pre-Chorus] (Am F C G D)
Am                F                 C               G
Arms are shaking, walls are caving, yeah
Am                   C               G                D
Hold your blessings, I'm confessing, yeah


[Chorus] ( Am F C G )
Am                            F
Somebody say a prayer for me, cause papa didn't preach
C                             G
And if he did, I'd still be wrong
Am                                   F
And I've been down on both my knees, why don't you wanna see?
C                                G
Why don't you wanna see?         I'm a sinner like you

[Bridge] ( Am F C Em )
Am           F              C             Em
Should I go, should I stay? Are they ever gonna change?
Am             F           C                 Em
Should we make our amends, just to hear them say amen?
Am        F         C               Em
If I run, run away, mama, would you be afraid?
    Am              F             C                Em
No, when the stones start to fly, who gon' be by my side?


[Chorus] ( Am F C G )

Somebody say a prayer for me, cause papa didn't preach

And if he did, I'd still be wrong
Am                                   F
And I've been down on both my knees, why don't you wanna see?
C                                G
Why don't you wanna see?         I'm a sinner like you
