Last night I was out driving, 
                       
Coming home at the end 
               E  Esus4 E
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        
When I came upon a wreck on 
        A  Asus4 A
the highway 
 
                        
Now there was blood and 
      Asus2 A   Asus4 A
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                  
He cried mister, won't you help me, 
A    Asus4 A Asus2
please

An ambulance finally came and 
            A        Asus4 A
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     
To say your baby died in a wreck 
           A  Asus4 A
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     
Thinking 'bout the wreck 
           A  Asus4 A
on the highway
