Richard Shindell - The Next Best Western
INTRO: G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC A minorAm G+G D MajorD G+G
C majorC
It's the middle of the night
A minorAm
Near the Indiana line
D MajorD G+G
I'm pulling in a Christian station
C majorC
The signal's crystal clear
A minorAm
But I cannot really hear
D MajorD A minorAm
What he says about the Revelation
B minorBm
I am wretched, I am tired
C majorC
But the preacher is on fire
G+G D MajorD
And I wish I could believe
CHORUS:
A minorAm C majorC C-D
Whoever watches over all these truckers
A minorAm C majorC C-Am
Show a little mercy for a weary sinner
D MajorD A minorAm
And deliver me, Lord deliver me
C majorC G+G C majorC A minorAm D MajorD G+G
Deliver me to the next Best Western
C majorC
Did he who made the lamb
A minorAm
Put the tremble in the hand
D MajorD G+G
That reaches out to take my quarter
C majorC
I look him in the eye
A minorAm
There isn't any time
D MajorD A minorAm
Just time enough to pass the tender
B minorBm
The highway takes its toll
C majorC
The green light flashes go
G+G D MajorD
And it's 'Welcome To Ohio'
CHORUS:
A minorAm C majorC C-D
Whoever watches over all these truckers
A minorAm C majorC C-Am
Show a little mercy for a weary sinner
D MajorD A minorAm
And deliver me, Lord deliver me
C majorC G+G C majorC
Deliver me to the next Best Western___
BRIDGE:
A minorAm D MajorD G+G C majorC
It takes light years of nothing to let these stars shine through
G+G A minorAm G+G G-D
It's an empty road that finds it's way back home to you
INSTRUMENTAL: D MajorD A minorAm C-G-D A minorAm C-G-Am B minorBm C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC G+G
C majorC
At four a.m. on 80 East
A minorAm
It's in the nature of the beast
D MajorD A minorAm
To wonder if there's something missing
B minorBm
I am wretched, I am tired
C majorC
But the preacher is on fire
G+G D MajorD
And I wish I could believe
CHORUS:
A minorAm C majorC C-D
Whoever watches over all these truckers
A minorAm C majorC C-Am
Show a little mercy for a weary sinner
D MajorD A minorAm
And deliver me, Lord deliver me
C majorC G+G C majorC
Deliver me to the next Best Western___

To the next Best Western________
