Roadside Prayer by Jason Boland
Roadside Prayer
(intro)
Em C D
(verse 1)
C G
I'm broke down
C G
On Spring Creek road
C G
Makes me wonder
D G
Why I'm trying to go home
But I left her behind
I had things to do
Just a long distance phone call
To say I miss you
But I got her recorder
The phone took my till
I'm a dime short of a cola
And this machine won't take bills
So I sit down and wait
Diesel smoke and noise
Ignored all the comments
Of a few local boys
(chorus)
C G D G
I wish I was back home with my friends and a beer.
C G D G
At the Wormy Dog bar, There's none like it out here
C G D Em
I'd give my last Dollar to back on the road
C G D G
There's 200 miles behind me and too many more to go.
C G D G
There's 200 miles behind me and too many more to go.

Em C D
(verse 2)
There's a warm case of Pearl
In my back seat
But it ain't going to help
Beat this highway heat
But the suns finally sinking
Gives me a hand
I don't ask for much
I guess you take what you can
The truckers keep on rollin
If this car wasn't my dad's
I leave the keys in it
And climb in the cab
I got oil on my hands
And grease in my hair
I'm stuck out here singing
This Roadside Prayer
(chorus)
(verse 3)
I doubt that I'll make it
In time for last call
There'll be no after hours
In trouble with the law
And Red's in his new room
In THC bliss
Ted's drunk as hell
You know Benny's pissed
And Neil's watchin wrestling
Hillary and Clay are up in bed
I throw down the bottle
And roll a number instead
(chorus)
(outro)
Em C D
end on G
