Last night I was out driving,
                                      E  Esus4 E
Coming home at the end of the working day
      A
I was riding alone through the drizzling rain,
       D
On a deserted stretch of a county two-lane,
       A           E                A  Asus4 A
When I came upon a wreck on the highway

                              Aus2 A   Asus4 A
Now there was blood and glass all  over,
                               E  Esus4 E
And there was nobody there but me
       A
As the rain tumbled down hard and cold,
         D
I seen a young man lying by the side of the road,
         A       E                  A    Asus4 A Aus2
He cried mister, won't you help me, please

An ambulance finally came and took him to Riverside,
                             E  Esus4 E
I watched as they drove him away
      A
And I thought of a girlfriend or a young wife,
      D
And a state trooper knocking in the middle of the night,
            A              E                A  Asus4 A
To say your baby died in a wreck on the highway

                Asus2     A       Asus4 A
Sometimes I sit up in the darkness,
                           E   Esus4  E
And I watch my baby as she sleeps
       A
Then I climb in bed and I hold her tight,
       D
I just lay there awake in the middle of the night,
A                  E                A  Asus4 A
Thinking 'bout the wreck on the highway

F#m A  Asus4 A
