(Verse 1)
You might say (C)grace is all I've known
But I've felt (Am)pain and its long (G) shadow follow (F)me down every (C)road
The truth ain't (C)lost, on this lost soul
I still (Am)try to make a-(G)mends but I ain't (F)holding out much (C)hope
Seems like (F)every morning starts with me just (C)counting up my sins
I've got (G)friends that I should call but I don't (C)make the time for them
I ain't (F)scared of where I'm going, I ain't (C)proud of where I've (Am)been
Momma (C)loves me, I'm still (G)born a-(C)gain

(Chorus)
So wrap me (F)up in sweet for-(C)giveness
Take my (G)wrongs and make them (C)white
Take my (F)scars and take my troubles, spread my (C)ashes in the (CAm)wind
Cause Momma (C)loves me I'm still (G)born a-(C)gain

(Verse 2)
We (C)all get (F)hurt, and we all (C) bleed
But the (Am)time has come to (G)reckon with the (F)wounds that buried (C)me
My best (C) days are not enough
I re-(F)member all the (G)times you loved me (F)just the way I (C)was
Seems like (Fevery morning starts with me just (C)counting up my sins
I've got (G)friends that I should call but I don't (C)make the time for them
I ain't (F)sure of where I'm going, I ain't (C)proud of where I've (Am)been
Momma (C)loves me, I'm still (G)born a-(C)gain

(Chorus)
So wrap (F)me up in sweet for-(C)giveness
Take my (G)wrongs (take my wrongs) and make them (C)white
Take my (F)scars and take my troubles and spread my (C)ashes in the (Am)wind
Momma (C)loves me I'm still (G)born again

(Outro.)
So, wrap me (F)up in sweet for-(C)giveness
Take my (G)wrongs (Gm) and make them (C)white
Take my (F)scars and take my troubles and spread my (C)ashes in the (Am)wind
Momma (C)loves me I'm still (G)born again (Am)
Momma (C)loves me I'm still (G)born again (C) - - - - -
