[Dm7] [G7] [Am] [G/B] [C] [G/B] [Am] [G] [F] [G]
I [C]brushed some pine [F]needles off of [G]memories tod[C]ay
My [C]fingers traced a [F]stone etched with a [G]date and a [C]nam[G/B]e
Of [Am]simple country [G]lady [F]so gentle yet so str[Em]ong
Her [Dm7]mem'ry floods my heart as I re[G]call
She [C]didn't have a l[F]ot but there was [G]something that she kn[C]ew
And it [C]meant the world when [F]she would say son [G]I'll pray for [C]you[G/B]
And when[Am]ever she would kn[G]eel beside h[F]er little rocking ch[Em]air
She'd [Dm7]turn her simple home into a [G]holy house of prayer
And [F]though she's gone aw[Em]ay
There's s[F]omething that I [G]really w[E/G#]ant to s[Am]ay[Am/G][D/F#][F][G]

A [C]constant source of str[F]ength for you when[G]ever you would f[C]all[G/B]
And [Am]when you felt so l[G]onely in [F]times of desperate n[Em]eed
