Intro: CGAmG (x2)
CG
She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
AmG
On a snow white Christmas Eve
CG
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy
AmG
With the baby in the backseat
CGAmG
Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
F
It'd been a long hard year
CG
She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
AmG
She was going way too fast
CG
Before she knew it she was spinning
AmG
On a thin black sheet of glass
CG
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
AmG
She didn't even have time to cry
FC
She was so scared, she threw her hands up in the air
Chorus:
G
Jesus take the wheel
D
Take it from my hands
AmGC
Cause I can't do this on my own
G
I'm letting go
D
So give me one more chance
AmGC
Save me from this road I'm on
CGAmGCGF
Jesus take the wheel
CG
It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
AmG
And the car came to a stop
CG
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat
AmG
Sleeping like a rock
CG
And for the first time in a long time
AmG
She bowed her head to pray
FC
She said I'm sorry for the way I've been living my life
FC
I know I've got to change, so from now on tonight
Chorus:
G
Jesus take the wheel
D
Take it from my hands
AmGC
Cause I can't do this on my own
G
I'm letting go
D
So give me one more chance
AmGC
Save me from this road I'm on
GDAmC
Jesus take the wheel.........
G
Ohh I'm letting go
D
So give me one more chance
AmGC
Save me from this road I'm on
AmGC
From this road I'm on
CGAm
Jesus take the wheel
GCG
Oh, take it, take it from me
AmGCGAmGCGF
Oh...., whoa oh.............
