[INTRO: ]F Bb C (2X)
F Bb F
I WAS ALL CAUGHT UP WITH MYSELF ON THE HIGHWAY LATE ONE NIGHT
F C
DRIVIN ALONG LIKE A BAT OUTTA HELL WHEN I OBSERVED AN AMAZING SIGHT
F Bb F
WAS A LONELY APPARITION BY THE ROADSIDE STANDING THERE
F C F
WITH A THUMB OUT IN THE WILDERNESS AND A HALO IN HIS HAIR
[Refrão]F
GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY,
Bb F
AND I?LL SHOW YOU PARADISE
F
GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY
C F
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 QUITE WHAT TO DO, SO I JAMMED ?ER DOWN IN GEAR
STARTED KICKING MY FEET UNDER THE SEAT, TRYIN TO HIDE THE BEER
WELL, HE JUST GRINNED AND SAID ?MY FRIEND, I KNOW THIS MAY SOUND ODD
BUT YOU GOT NOTHING TO FEAR ABOUT DRINKIN THE BEER WHEN YOU?RE RIDIN WITH THE SON OF GOD
CHORUS
WELL, I SAW GOOD NEWS IN HIS BABY BLUES SO I PUNCHED HER TO THE FLOOR
I SAID ?YOU?LL HAVE TO SHOW ME HOW TO GET THERE, I AIN?T BEEN BEFORE?
WELL, IT?S PRETTY HARD TO FIND 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 A 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
