January and the air is cold
 A                                                 Bm               A                   G 
It's been a while since I heard my mother's tone
                                       D 
Yet I know when I need her most
         Bm                 A                     G 
She lends me her shoulder
                         D                                 A 
Carries my grief like hidden sin
                                 Bm                               A                 G 
Even through the times I wouldn't let her in
                                                   D                             A 
Now I'll never make the same mistake ever again
                                                 Em 
Sometimes it takes the strong hand
                                       G                                 D 
Of a kind-hearted mother to make a weak man
                                       B7                                     Em 
Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere
 G                                                           D                 A         D 
To withstand more than he can without her care
 G                                 D 
Lately I've been calling home
 A                               Bm                         A     G 
Speaking to my brothers on the phone
           D 
And we laugh as we're looking back
 Bm           A               G 
Over our shoulder
                             D                                                 A 
Laughing 'bout games that we played to win
                             Bm                                   A     G 
And how we wouldn't let each other in
                                             D                               A 
How we'll never make the same mistakes Ever again
                                                 Em 
Sometimes it takes the strong hand
                                         G                               D 
Of a kind-hearted brother to make a weak man

Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere

To withstand more than he can without his care
 G                                                             D                                     A 
It's hard to think there was a time when I believed I
               Bm       A                   G 
Would never see a future
                             D                           A     D 
Now I can't see anything clearer
 G                             D 
So tonight I'm coming home
 A                                                     Bm         A               G 
Can't bear to think of you lying there alone
                                               D 
Stroke your hair and I'll kiss your back
                               Bm       A                 G 
Then right up over your shoulder
                             D                                           A 
Dive into your world like it's gonna end
                       Bm                       A                   G 
Like I may never get the chance again
                                           D                                                 A

To withstand more than he can without her care
                                                     Em 
Sometimes it takes a little planning
                                       G                                         D 
And whole lotta understanding to make a weak man
