Verse 1:
     F#                 G
The boy only wanted to give his mother something 
    Ddim                    A
And all of her roses had bloomed
   F#                 G
Looking at him as he came rushing in with them
  Ddim                   A
Knowing her roses were doomed
(E)           (F#)           (Bm)         (A)
All she could see were some thorns buried deep
         (E)           (F#)        (Bm)        (A)     
And the tears that he cried as she tended his wounds


Chorus: (follow tab)

        Ddim         G    Bm   A
But she knew it was love
       Ddim           G Gmaj7 A7sus A7 
It was one she could understand
A7sus   Ddim        G
He was showing his love
     Bm            A       Ddim G A7sus A7 
And that's how he hurt his hands


Verse 2:

F#                        G               Ddim              A
He still remembered that night as a child on his mother's knee
F#                          G
She held him close as she opened the Bible
     Ddim               A
And quietly started to read
      (E)      (F#)       (Bm)     (A)
Then seeing a picture of Jesus he cried out
 (E)        (F#)     (Bm)           (A)  
Momma, He's got some scars just like me


Repeat Chorus

Break:

F#  G  Ddim  A  F#  G  Ddim  A

(E) (F#) (Bm) (A) (E) (F#) (Bm) (A)

(2nd half of tab) Ddim  G  Bm  A  Ddim  G  Gmaj7  A7sus  A7


Verse 3:

F#                             G
Now the boy's grown and moved out on his own
     Ddim              A
When uncle sam comes along
    F#                      G
A foreign affair, but our young men were there
     Ddim                 A
And luck had his number drawn
(E)       (F#)          (Bm)      (A)
It wasn't long till our hero was gone
   (E)         (F#)          (Bm)             (A)
He gave to a friend what he learned from the cross


(tab again)
         Ddim        G  Bm  A
And they knew it as love
       Ddim           G  Gmaj7  A7sus  A7  
It was one they could understand
  A7sus  Ddim        G
He was showing his love
     Bm            A        Ddim  G  A7sus  A7
And that's how he hurt his hands
       Ddim           G  Gmaj7  A7sus  A7
It was one they could understand
A7sus    Ddim       G
He was showing his love
      Bm           A       Ddim  G  A7sus  A7
And that's how he hurt his hands.
