Angel Boy

Tim McGraw

My mother said

There's only one way

 A sweet angel boy

Narrow and straight

 Time

It has passed

Teachings

They fade

 Now her angel boy

Has gone astray

I've held the hand of the Devil

Felt his breath on my skin

 Dip me into the water

Wash me again

 Can I still be forgiven

For all of these things

 Or have I gone too far now

 Have I lost my wings

I found a priest

I spoke my mind

 Asked if I'd sinned

One too many times

 He said

My son

You're only a man

Then I said

Sir

You don't understand

I've held the hand of the Devil

Felt his breath on my skin

 Dip me into the water

Wash me again

 Can I still be forgiven

For all of these things

 Or have I gone too far now

 Have I lost my wings

God help us all

For what we have done

 We've lost our way

We can't find the Son

 We make our beds

We seal our fate

 Is there still time

Or is it too late

We've held the hand of the Devil

Felt his breath on our skin

 Dip us into the water

Wash us again

 Can we still be forgiven

For all of these things

 Or have we gone too far now

 Have we lost our wings

We've held the hand of the Devil

Felt his breath on our my skin

 Dip us into the water

Wash us again

 Can we still be forgiven

For all of these things

 Or have we gone too far now

 Have we lost our wings

Have we lost our wings

If You’re Reading This

Tim McGraw

If you're reading this

 My Momma’s sitting there

 Looks like I only got

A one way ticket over here

 Sure wish I

 Could give you one more kiss

 And war was just a game we played

When we were kids

Now I'm laying down my gun

 I'm hanging up boots

 I'm up here with God

And we're both watching over you

So lay me down

 In that open field

Out on the edge of town

 And know my soul

 Is where my momma always prayed

 That it would go

 And if you're reading this

 I'm already home

If you're reading this

 Halfway around the world

 I won’t be there to see

The birth of our little girl

 I hope she looks like you

 I hope she fights like me

 Stand up for the innocent and weak

I'm laying down my gun

 I'm hanging up boots

 Tell dad I don't regret

That I followed in his shoes

So lay me down

 In that open field

Out on the edge of town

 And know my soul

 Is where my momma always prayed

 That it would go

 And if you're reading this

 I'm already home

If you're reading this

 There’s going to come a day

 When you'll move on

 And find someone else

 And that's Okay

 Just remember this

 I'm in a better place

 Where soldiers live in peace

 And angels sing Amazing Grace

So lay me down

 In that open field

Out on the edge of town

 And know my soul

 Is where my momma always prayed

 That it would go

 And if you're reading this

If you’re reading this

 I'm already home
