[Bridge 2] [A7] Tryin' your best to [B7] bring the [Em7] water to you [Gm6] eyes. [A7] Thinkin' it might [B7] stop her, from [Em7] whoopin' your be- [A7#5] hind.

[Bridge 3] [A7] Mama gives you [B7] money, [Em7] for Sunday [Gm6] school, [A7] You trade yours for [B7] candy, [Em7] after church is [A7#5] through.
