[Intro]
C Am G F
[Verse]
C
She said, "Call me when you get there"
Am
My first time alone where
G
My boot soles pressed the pedals
F
And both hands held the wheel
C
Finally on my own way
Am
Riding 40 down the slow lane
G
As soon as I got parked
F
I kept my part of the deal
[Chorus]
C G
Hey, Ma, I made it down another open road
Am
And even though I'm grown Thought you might like to know
F
I got where I meant to go
C G
And out here, one thing never changes
Am
As long as I got wheels on the street
G F
There's knees on the bedside praying
C G
Waiting to hear, "Hey, Ma, I made it"
[Verse]
C
Suitcase by the screen door
Am
Goodbye on the front porch
G
Bags and cardboard boxes
F
In the back seat of the car
C
First time crossing time zones
Am
First time through Ohio
G
And I promised Mama
F
My phone works the same way from afar
[Chorus]
C G
Hey, Ma, I made it down another open road
Am
And even though I'm grown Thought you might like to know
F
I got where I meant to go
C G
And out here, one thing never changes
Am
As long as I got wheels on the street
G F
There's knees on the bedside praying
C G
Waiting to hear, "Hey, Ma, I made it"
Am G F
Hey Ma I Made It
[Bridge]
Am
Every show I ever played
G
Every state and every stage
F
I’m bustin’ my ass every day 'til I can call and say…
[Chorus]
C G
Hey, Ma, I made it down another open road
Am
And even though I'm grown Thought you might like to know
F
I got where I meant to go
C G
And out here, one thing never changes
Am
As long as I got wheels on the street
G F
There's knees on the bedside praying
