Capo 4
Intro: F C G Am G 2x
[Verse 1]
F C
January and the air is cold
G Am G F
It's been a while since I heard my mother's tone
C G
Yet I know when I need her most
Am G
She lends me her shoulder
F C G
Carries my grief like hidden sin
Am G F
Even through the times I wouldn't let her in
C G
Now I'll never make the same mistake ever again
[Chorus]
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
F C
Of a kind-hearted mother to make a weak man
A7 F
Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere
C G
To withstand more than he can without her care
[Verse 2]
F C
Lately I've been calling home
G Am G F
Speaking to my brothers on the phone
C G
And we laugh as we're looking back
Am G
Over our shoulder
F C G
Laughing 'bout games that we played to win
Am G F
And how we wouldn't let each other in
C
How we'll never make the same mistakes
G
Ever again
[Chorus]
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
F C
Of a kind-hearted brother to make the weak man
A7 F
Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere
C G
To withstand more than he can without his care
[Bridge]

It's hard to think there was a time when I believed I
Am G
Would never see a future
F C G
Now I can't see anything clearer
[Verse 3]
F C
So tonight I'm coming home
Am G F
Can't bear to think of you lying there alone
C G
Stroke your hair and I'll kiss your back
Am G
Then right up over your shoulder
F C G
Dive into your world like it's gonna end
Am G F
Like I may never get the chance again
C G
Everybody needs somebody on whom they can depend
[Chorus]
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand

Of a kind-hearted woman to make a weak man
. A7 F
Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere
C G
To withstand more than he can without her care
[Chorus]

Sometimes it takes a little planning
F C
And whole lotta understanding to make a weak man
A7 F
Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere
C G
To withstand more than he can without her care
[Outro]

Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Of a kind-hearted mother

Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Of a kind-hearted brother
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Of a kind-hearted woman
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
Dm
Sometimes it takes a strong hand
