Prayer For The Road

C   G   Am   F

           F          C          
I found it outside of Birmingham 
G                 Am
headed to another place
        F            C            
Took me five hundred miles to get 
       G                C
to the bottom of my suitcase
       F            C             
It was in between a pair of jeans 
       G                Am
and my old black winter coat
F          C                  G 
It took my breath away when I 
            C
read what she wrote

C                            G
May the wheels keep turning, get you
 where you need to go
Am                                
I'll keep the porch light burning 
F
'til you get back home
C                              G
May the angels fly beside you, down 
every mile you roll
Am                           F
May heaven hear this prayer, prayer 
for the road

F              C              G 
As much as she misses me, she 
                 Am
found the words to write
F         C                 G   
Enough to keep me warm on a cold
          C
 December night
             F          C     G  
And when I'm running on empty and
             Am
 I'm feeling lost
F              C      G         
I can hear her voice, whispering
    C
 to God

C                            G
May the wheels keep turning, get you
 where you need to go
Am                                
I'll keep the porch light burning 
F
'til you get back home
C                              G
May the angels fly beside you, down 
every mile you roll
Am                           F
May heaven hear this prayer, prayer 
for the road

C   G   Am   F

Dm                           C   
Must have read that note at least
             G
 a thousand times
Dm                           F   
It always takes me where the 
              G
highway meets the sky

C                            G
May the wheels keep turning, get you
 where you need to go
Am                                
I'll keep the porch light burning 
F
'til you get back home
C                              G
May the angels fly beside you, down 
every mile you roll
Am                           F
May heaven hear this prayer, prayer 
for the road
