[Intro]
D Bm7
[Verse 1]
D
I was raised the Lord's to thank for each and every single blessing
Bm7
Lord knows I've been countin' mine, there ain't no second guessing
G
After all the things he gave me, sure hate to ask for more
D A
But it ain't fancy things I'm praying for, no
[Chorus]
G
Just a life of love, a wife to kiss
A couple kids, a picket fence
D A
A red brick house, porch wrapped round on the edge of a little town
G
If it's the last thing that I ever ask
Is plenty more good years with dad
D A
I'm pretty sure he'd probably like to see
Em7
How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
G D
Chasin' down these downhome dreams
(Chasin' down these downhome dreams)
[Verse 2]
D
Used to hope that I go pro, but 18 came, I let that go
Bm7
I have bills to pay and nothin' saved, so that's the way it goes
G
But the day I lost my mama was the day that I woke up
D A
Figured out that I don't need that much, no
[Chorus]
G
Just a life of love, a wife to kiss
A couple kids, a picket fence
D A
A red brick house, porch wrapped round n on the edge of a little town

If it's the last thing that I ever ask

Now I lay me down to sleep
G
Thinkin' 'bout how things will be

When the man upstairs sends one down for me
[Chorus]
G
A life of love, a wife to kiss
A couple kids, a picket fence

I'm pretty sure he'd probably like to see

How a boy like me ends up turnin' out
