Craig Morgan – The Father, My Son, & The Holy Ghost

(Album: God, Family, Country (2020))

C,     Am,  F,     C,

Lights are shining bright, It’s always downtown on the row,
I have friends that come from outta town, Asking me to go,
They say “There’s so much going on; Why don’t you come along & show us around”

  I tell them Karen’s not feeling well, So I probably shouldn’t go out,
  Besides I’ve gotta fix a list of things,  need to do around the house,
  Then I hang up the phone;  Turn the radio back on, and sit back down

        G,                                                      F

P-C: I know my boy ain’t here but he ain’t gone

      C

In the mornings I wake up, give her a kiss, head to the kitchen

Am

Pour a cup of wake-me-up and try to rouse up some ambition

      F                                                   G                               

Go outside, sit by myself but I ain’t alone      

                         F            G                                  C

I’ve got the Father, my son, and the Holy Ghost

I’ve been beat up, I been pushed & shoved, But never ever really knocked down
Between mom and dad, Uncle Sam and friends, I somehow always pulled out
But the pain of this was more;  Than I’d ever felt before, yeah I was broke

   I cried and cried and cried, Until I passed out on the floor
   Then I prayed and prayed and prayed, Till I thought I couldn’t pray anymore
   And minute by minute, day by day; My God, He gave me hope

[pre-CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

  Am                                                       G

I hope, I love, I pray, I cry; I heal a little more each day inside

     F                          Am                F

I won't completely heal till I go home

[CHORUS]

    F                                     G

One day I'll wake up and I'll be home

          F                    G                            N.C.

with the Father, my son and the Holy Ghost
