Talking to Jesus | Monroe Nazarene Worship

##Verse 1:##
%G
 Grandma used to pray out loud
%G
 By her bed every night
%G
 To me it sounded like mumbling
%G
 Like she was out of her mind
%Am/G  G
        She said, "Boy, this kind of praying
%Am/G  G
        Is what saved my life
%Am/G  G
        You oughta try it some time"
%Am/G  G
        And now I know she was right

##Verse 2:##
%Am/C  G
        Mama used to drag me to church
%Am/C  G
        Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights
%Am/C  G
        Khaki pants and a polo shirt
%Am/C  G
        Boy, I put up a fight
%Am/C  G
        She said, "Son, one day you’ll thank me
%Am/C  G
        For having God in your life"
%Am/C  G
        And yeah, I know she was right
%Am/C  G
        Yeah, my mama was right

##Chorus:##
%               Am/D       G
'Cause now I’m talking to Jesus
%           Am/C       G
She got me talking to Jesus
%           Am/C       G
She got me talking to Jesus
%         Am/E     G
Yeah, my mama was right
%               Am/D       G
'Cause now I’m talking to Jesus
%             Am/C        G
Yeah, I love talking to Jesus

%Am/C             G              Am/E  G

##Verse 3:##
%        Am/C         G
I've got three of my own now
%                        G
Trying to raise them up right
%            G
My oldest is fifteen
%                             G
And I remember what that was like
%          Am/C          G
Trying to deal with the drama
%                         Am/C         G
Trying to figure out the questions in life
%              Am/C          G
And I’ve been looking for a way to show him
%       Am/C      G
How to make it alright
%                     G
Then he walked in my room
%                      Am/C              G
While I was saying my prayers the other night
%               Am/C       G
He said, "I’ll come back later
%                     Am/C        G
I can tell you got a lot on your mind"
%              Am/C         G
I said, "It’s not an interruption
%                  Am/C            G
You couldn’t have picked a better time
%                  Am/C       G
'Cause I was just talking to Jesus
%              Am/C       G
Come over and give it a try"

##Chorus:##
%           Am/D        G
We started talking to Jesus
%           Am/C       G
We started talking to Jesus
%           Am/C       G      Am/E  G
We started talking to Jesus
%             Am/D       G
And now he’s talking to Jesus
%                Am/C        G
Thank God, he’s talking to Jesus
%            Am/C       G
I hope he’s talking to Jesus
%        Am/C        G
For the rest of his life, yeah

##Verse 4:##
%                        G
There’s no wrong way to do it
%                       G
There’s no bad time to start
%                       G
It don't have to sound pretty
%                             G
Just tell Him what’s on your heart
%            Am/C    G
'Cause it’s not a religion, come on
%            Am/C        G
'Cause it’s more like a friendship
%       Am/C          G
So just talk to your Father

Like you are His kid
