As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
          Fm                          Gm            C
I take a look at my life and realize there's nothin' left

That even my mama thinks that my mind is gone

But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it

On my knees in the night saying prayers in the streetlight
