INTRO: F  Bb C (2X) 
 
F                                      Bb               F 
I WAS ALL CAUGHT UP WITH MYSELF ON THE HIGHWAY LATE ONE NIGHT 
F                                         C 
DRIVIN ALONG LIKE A BAT OUTTA HELL WHEN I OBSERVED AN AMAZING SIGHT 
F                              Bb                 F 
WAS A LONELY APPARITION BY THE ROADSIDE STANDING THERE 
F                                        C           F 
WITH A THUMB OUT IN THE WILDERNESS AND A HALO IN HIS HAIR 
 
F      
GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY, 
         Bb           F 
AND I'LL SHOW YOU PARADISE 
F                          
GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY 
   C             F 
MY NAME IS JESUS CHRIST  
 
WELL, I CAME SCREECHING TO A HALT AND I SAID 'HOP ON IN' 
HE SAID 'THANKS FOR THE LIFT I FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS 
I'VE JUST COME FROM JERUSALEM WHERE THINGS ARE GOING BAD 
AH, GIMME A RIDE TO HEAVEN BOY, I NEED TO TALK TO MY DAD' 
 
CHORUS 
 
WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW QUITE WHAT TO DO, SO I JAMMED 'ER DOWN IN GEAR 
STARTED KICKING MY FEET UNDER THE SEAT, TRYIN TO HIDE THE BEER 
WELL, HE JUST GRINNED AND SAID 'MY FRIEND, I KNOW THIS MAY SOUND ODD 
BUT YOU GOT NOTHING TO FEAR ABOUT DRINKIN THE BEER WHEN YOU'RE RIDIN WITH THE SON OF GOD 
 
CHORUS 
 
WELL, I SAW GOOD NEWS IN HIS BABY BLUES SO I PUNCHED HER TO THE FLOOR 
I SAID 'YOU'LL HAVE TO SHOW ME HOW TO GET THERE, I AIN'T BEEN BEFORE' 
WELL, IT'S PRETTY HARD TO FIND BUT I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE CLUE 
IT AIN'T SOMEWHERE UP IN THE AIR, IT'S RIGHT HERE INSIDE YOU 
 
THEN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A PERFECT SMILE, FROM HIS ROBES HE PULLED A GUN 
STUCK IT RIGHT UPSIDE MY HEAD AND SAID 'HOW'S THIS FOR KINGDOM COME'' 
WELL, I PULLED OFF SCARED AND I HEARD HIM SAY AS HE LEFT ME BENEATH THE STARS 
YOU KNOW THE LORD MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS AND TONIGHT MY SON' 
HE'S GONNA USE YOUR CAR 
 
CHORUS
