D                        C
Got me wishin' God would show me the way
D                    C
Show me heaven maybe just for a day

Can you help me be a better man?

Mother, mother can you show me the way?

I'm sick of dealing with all the problems at hand

Can you help me be a better man?

There's no need to run and hide

When the world leaves a scar

Sister, Lauren, love you all the way

How to love someone as true as you can

D                        C
Brother, brother we speak day to day

You're a blueprint for a future that's paved

My wishful thinking might not go as we planned
Eb
But I'll help you be a better man

When the world leaves a scar
