Salvation
John Berry
D A D A D
Verse One:
D A
One day when I was a little down on my luck
G A D
I stood on the highway in the rain
A
And I sent up a prayer for a Heaven-bound truck
G A D
And like an angel a diesel it came
Verse Two:
The truck driver said he was a good Christian man
and he laid the salvation on thick
He held two plastic statues in the palm of his hand
and told me to just take my pick
Chorus:
G A D
He said I keep my face in the highway
G D A
That dashboard's a good place stand
D A G
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
D A D
'Cause He already knows where I've been
Verse Three:
Somewhere across Texas, we parted ways
But I kept his advice through the years
Whenever I'm driving I make sure it stays
Between the radio dial and the mirror
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
Bridge:
A D G
He knows where I've drifted, He knows where I've sinned
A D G
He's there to make sure I don't go there again
A D G C
A guy like me needs all the help he can get
G D G A
So as a gentle reminder I'm not perfect yet
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
D A G
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
D A D
'Cause He already knows where I've been
