[Verse 1]
A
I made a wish upon a star
D
I could have a brand new car
A
Got tired of wishing
    E
So I stole one
A
Seventeen and knew it all
D
My dreams were big but my thoughts were small
A
So many roads somehow I chose
     E
The wrong one
 
 
[Chorus]
A                         D
But Jesus and mama always loved me
 
A                        E
Even when the devil took control
A                      D
Jesus and mama always loved me
       A
This I know
 
 
[Verse 2]
A
I felt trapped most all my life
D
Found new kinds of lows and highs
A
Never been a husband but I've had a
              E
lot of wives hold me
A
Headstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told
D
Like a wild horse that couldn't be rode
A
A rainbow chaser hungry for gold
          E
And still searchin'
 
 
[Chorus]
A                         D
But Jesus and mama always loved me
 
A                        E
Even when the devil took control
A                      D
Jesus and mama always loved me
       A
This I know
 
A
I wish mom could see me now
D
And how I've turned it all around
A
Lately I've been going down
          E
The right road
A
Life's a picture that you paint
D
With blues and grays and can's and cant's
A
Heaven knows I'm not a saint
      E
But I know
 
 
[Chorus]
A                         D
But Jesus and mama always loved me
 
A                        E
Even when the devil took control
A                      D
Jesus and mama always loved me
       A
This I know

on the album version the key seems to be B, but i may have a different version.

Sounds to me like you need a capo on fret 4 for it to sound right using standard tuning...but I play by ear and I have limited music theory knowledge.

If you tune down 1/2 and then play in C it's right on.
