Am C G
[Verse 1]
Am
Well, I've been drivin' all night
Am
And I know I'm gettin' tired
C G
But I haven't got far to go
Am
Think I'll push this southbound eighteen wheeler
C G
A little farther on down the road
Am
I've been drivin' like a fool,
C G
Dodgin' all the truck stops tryin' hard to make it home
G
I gotta' put the hammer down
G
Drive it in the ground
G
Think I'm goin' crazy just from drivin' alone
Am C G
[Verse 2]
Am
Well, my eyes are gettin' heavy and I ran out of vitamins
C G
Six or seven hours ago
Am
So I thought I'd try to raise me a northbound jimmy
C G
On my C.B. radio
Am
I was breakin' for a copy when someone answered back
C G
In a voice that was sweet and low
G
He said, "I'm gonna' lay it on you
G
Where the rubber meets the road
G
It's the Lord talkin' to you on your radio
[Chorus]
D
It was the voice of Jesus
Em
And I heard him say,
A
"Got an angel ridin' shotgun
C D
And he's ridin' with you all the way"
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
Am
I was flyin' like the wind, breathin' fire like a dragon
C G
When my diesel truck left the ground
Am
Well, I thought that I was dreamin'
But the Lord was talkin' to me
C G
Really layin' the gospel down
Am
I was prayin' and repentin', laughin' and grinnin'
C G
Thought my diesel truck was heaven bound
G
Then the angel hit the air brakes
G
And slowed my jimmy down
G
Made a three point landin' about a mile from town
[Chorus]
D
It was the voice of Jesus
Em
And I heard him say,
A
"Got an angel ridin' shotgun
C D
And he's ridin' with you all the way"
