Good Intentions - Randy Travis/Marvin Coe

D G D A

D D7 G D

Mama always prayed that I'd be a better man than daddy

D7 A

and I determined not to let her down

D D7 G D

Deserted by the man she loved and left to raise four children

A7 D

we were the local gossip of the town.

D D7 G D

I promised her that I'd live right and not be like the others

D7 A

but I wound up in jail on Chrismas day

D D7 G D

I told her I'd be home and not to worry 'bout my brothers

A7 D

when I got home my mom had passed away

(chorus)

D D7 G D

And I hear tell the road to hell is paved with good intentions

D7 A

and mama my intentions were the best

D D7 G D

There's lotsa things in my life I just as soon not mention

D7 A

Looks like I've turned out like all the rest

G A7 D

But mama my intentions were the best

D D7 G D

A little boy with big blue eyes a-beggin' to go fishing

D7 A

I promised him but never took the time

D D7 G D

Now they won't let me see him and I sit here a-wishing

A7 D

Wishin' I could hold him one more time

(repeat chorus)

G A7 D

But mama my intentions were the best
