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"

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"
