Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I WAS ALL CAUGHT UP WITH MYSELF ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT

DRIVIN LIKE A BAT OUTTA HELL WHEN I BEHLED AN AMAZING SIGHT

WAS A LONELY APPARITION BY THE ROADSIDE STANDING THERE

WITH A THUMB OUT IN THE WILDERNESS AND A HALO IN HIS HAIR

Chorus

GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY,

 AND I'LL SHOW YOU PARADISE

GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY

 MY NAME IS JESUS CHRIST

WELL, I CAME SCREECHING TO A HALT AND I SAID HOP ON IN

HE SAID THANKS FOR THE LIFT I FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS

I'VE JUST COME FROM JERUSALEM WHERE THINGS ARE GOING BAD

AH, GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY, I NEED TO TALK TO MY DAD

Chorus

WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW JUST WHAT TO DO, SO I JAMMED 'ER DOWN IN GEAR

STARTED KICKING MY FEET BENEATH THE SEAT, I WAS TRYIN TO HIDE THE BEER

WELL, HE JUST GRINNED AND SAID MY FRIEND, I KNOW YOU MAY THINK IT'S ODD

BUT YOU GOT NOTHING TO FEAR ABOUT DRINKIN A BEER IF YOU'LL SHARE IT WITH THE SON OF GOD

Chorus

WELL, I SAW GOOD NEWS IN HIS BABY BLUES SO I STOMPED IT ON THE FLOOR

I SAID YOU'LL HAVE TO SHOW ME HOW TO GET THERE, I AIN'T BEEN BEFORE

WELL, IT'S A HARD PLACE TO FIND HE SAID BUT I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE CLUE

IT AIN'T SOMEWHERE UP IN THE AIR, IT'S RIGHT HERE INSIDE YOU

THEN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT PERFECT SMILE, FROM HIS ROBES HE PULLED A GUN

STUCK IT RIGHT UPSIDE MY HEAD AND SAID HOW'S THIS FOR KINGDOM COME??

WELL, I PULLED OFF SCARED AND I HEARD HIM SAY AS HE LEFT ME BENEATH THE STARS

YOU KNOW THE LORD MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS AND TONIGHT MY SON

HE'S GONNA USE YOUR CAR

Chorus
