Jesus, Take the Wheel

D                      A
She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
     Bm                 A
On a snow white Christmas Eve
D                  A                        Bm                A
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby in the backseat
      D                    A              Bm            A
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
           G
It?d been a long hard year
         D                     A
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
       Bm           A
She was going way to fast

D           A                        Bm                A
Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
        D                   A
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
    Bm             A
She didn't even have time to cry
       G
She was sooo scared
              D
She threw her hands up in the air

( G D )

D             A
Jesus take the wheel
A               E
Take it from my hands
                   Bm  A   D
Cause I can't do this on my own
D           A
I'm letting go

 A                  E
So give me one more chance
E                 Bm   A   D
 save me from this road I'm on
D              A
Jesus take the wheel

( D  A  Bm  A )

       D                            A
It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
       Bm            A
And the car came to a stop
    D                     A                  Bm             A
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock
            D               A
And for the first time in a long time

    Bm               A
She bowed her head to pray
            G
She said I'm sorry for the way
      D
I've been living my life
        G
I know I've got to change
       D
So from now on tonight
D              A
Jesus take the wheel
A               E
Take it from my hands

E                   Bm  A D
Cause I can't do this on my own
D           A
I'm letting go
 A                 E
So give me one more chance

  E               Bm   A    D
 save me from this road I'm on
    D               A
Oh, Jesus take the wheel

( A  E  Bm  A  D )

 D             A
Oh, I'm letting go
                  E
So give me one more chance
                Bm    A   D
Save me from this road I'm on
         Bm   A   D
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

( D  A  Bm  A )

Oh, take it, take it from me
Oh, why, oh
