In The Curve

	  		  
     G     D          G  
I've never taken this curve 
G            D      G 
Driving this fast before 
  G            D         Em             C 
A glowing stop sign, but both lanes are mine 
   G           D             G 
No seat belts attached to my door 
  
        G     D           G 
Well my speed meter don't work 
   G            D            G 
So I'm going to guess ninety-five 
     G          D           Em      C 
Well maybe I'll fix it, and maybe I won't 
     G           D      G 
It depends on my being alive 
  
 
  
        G         D          G 
Well my bottle of bourbon is gone 
   G         D        G 
It flew away all by itself 
      G        D           Em      C 
So if ever you find it, my photo behind it 
   G         D          G   
In memory of me on your shelf 
  
 
  
     G         D           G 
Well it's been raining all day 
    G         D           G 
And it's been raining all night 
  G              D           Em         C 
A slip and slide highway and I'm moving sideways 
    G              D               G 
I'm loose, but my steering wheel's tight 
  
        G           D         G  
Well my sixty-three Ford is a bull 
      G             D         G 
She's four thousand pounds at least 
    G        D            Em             C 
But metal surrenders when Oak trees meet fenders 
    G          D                 G 
And engines go through the front seat 
  
  
  
       G       D           G 
Well I lost control in the curve 
      G        D              G 
And a gas line broke in the wreck 
  G               D          Em           C 
I walked from the ashes with just a few scratches 
   G        D          G 
My crucifix warm on my neck 
  
  
        G             D         G 
Well my good Lord was with me tonight 
     G        D         G 
Just riding beside me tonight 
    G              D              Em           C 
And now we're just talking, we're hitchhiking, walking 
      G          D         G 
We'll see you in Concord tonight 
  
    G              D 
And now we're just walking 
      Em           C 
We're hitchhiking, talking 

      G 
We'll see you  
   D 
In Concord  
  G  C G
