She raised a good man

[Intro]
(ac-gtr) (steel-sl) (pad-lw) (kick-dp)
She worked long days, still made ’em shine,
Turned the drive home into good-time lines.
Little one laughin’ in the backseat light,
Peace sign up as the day kissed night.

[Verse 1]
(ac-gtr) (kick-sf) (bs-wm)
Birthday crumbs in the dashboard glow,
Frostin’ laughs only she’d know.
“Baby, dream big anytime you can…”
Yeah, that’s how love builds a man.

[Chorus]
(full-bd) (steel-sl) (dr-br) (pad-wd) (bs-thk)
(F harm-lft)
She raised a good man—
Heart steady when the world hits hard,
Knows how to love with an open guard.
Strong enough to bend, never break apart,
Carries her fire in the deepest part.
Yeah everything I am was her quiet plan—
She raised a good man.

[Post-Chorus Tag]
(pc-tag)
She raised a good man…
Yeah she raised a good man…

[Verse 2]
(ac-gtr) (steel-flt) (pad-lw)
Little masks and a painted smile,
Every season she made worthwhile.
Butterfly dreams on a bedroom wall,
Peace-sign snapshots sayin’ “Loved through it all.”
Every moment stitched in that small hand—
That’s what shapes a good man.

[Bridge]
(ac-gtr-lt) (pad-rise) (steel-cry)
She taught me faith without a roar,
How real love walks through any storm.
If the world held half her steady grace,
We’d all be in a better place.

[Pre-Chorus Lift]
(lift-gtr) (bd-bld) (pad-rise2)
And every time I stand back up again…
I hear her voice say, “Be a good man.”

[Final Chorus — Explosive]
(full-bd) (steel-soar2) (dr-wd) (pad-wd2) (vox-grit)
She raised a good man—
Built from fire only love could fan.
Every mountain I climb, she understands,
Her strength is the roar still in my hands.
If she could see me now, I hope she'd know—
I’m givin’ everything with all my soul.
Yeah with every breath I take, I prove her plan—
Yeah she raised a damn good man!

[Post-Chorus Tag — Final Hit]
(pc-tag)
She raised a good man…
Yeah she raised a good man…
She raised a good, good man…

[Outro]
(ac-gtr) (steel-sw) (pad-lw)
Peace sign up, proud as I can stand,
She smiles beneath those butterfly wings—
She raised a good man.
