Verse 1
[D]
Late night dark, daylight gone
[A] [D] [A]
Driving all alone on a long road
[D]
Crackling loud, the radio
[A] [D] [A]
Sing along to a song you don't know
[D]
Storm cloud is lower in the sky
[A] [D] [A]
With a flash the radio and headlights die
[D]
Car was cold, so the story goes
[A] [D] [A]
Over to the dark side of the road
Pre-Chorus
[E] [D]
Pulling plastic out of dirt
[A] [D] [A]
Waiting for the tractor to turn the earth
[E] [D]
He stood up and stared at me
[A] [D] [A]
He said "boy I've seen some crazy things"
Chorus 1
[E] [D] [A]
Well he's hoping that the clouds will change
[D] [A]
In between the job, he says
[D] [A]
He's living like a dog
[E]
In a back seat of a car
[D] [A]
Well, things I never thought I'd see
[D] [A]
It's all witchcraft and sorcery
[D] [A]
You better bring some kind of offering
[E]
If you want to make it out alive
Verse 2
[D]
Late night dark, daylight gone
[A] [D] [A]
Driving all alone on a long road
[D]
Static clouds coming down
[A] [D] [A]
In the air there's fire and brimstone
[D]
And that's it, clear and cheap
[A] [D] [A]
It framed up like a photograph of his windshield
[D]
Clock on the dash, three o'clock at night
[A] [D] [A]
He never got a chance to see her eyes
Pre-Chorus
[E] [D]
Pulling plastic out of dirt
[A] [D] [A]
Waiting for the tractor to turn the earth
[E] [D]
He stood up and stared at me
[A] [D] [A]
He said "boy I've seen some crazy things"
Chorus 2
[E] [D] [A]
He said "I've had problems with the bottle"
[D] [A]
Yeah I've read over the Bible
[D] [A] [E]
And I believe in God, just don't know if he believes in me
[D] [A]
It's a counterfeit revival
[D] [A]
For all the lonely folk in trouble
[D] [A] [E]
But you'll never see a preacher put the hate all over me
Bridge
[D] [A] [D] [A]
Wake the dead, look alive, the body was touched by fire
[D] [A] [D] [A]
She was lost, she was tired, the statue of a thousand eyes
[D]
She looked afraid, looked alone
[A] [D] [A]
He took her to his house, he took her to his home
[D]
When she didn't have nowhere to go, she didn't say a thing
[D] [A] [D]
You didn't need to know
[D]
Now half asleep and half insane
[A] [D] [A]
He hears a voice calling his name
Chorus 1
[E] [D] [A]
Well he's hoping that the clouds will change
[D] [A]
In between the job, he says
[D] [A]
He's living like a dog
[E]
In a back seat of a car
[D] [A]
Well, things I never thought I'd see
[D] [A]
It's all witchcraft and sorcery
[D] [A]
You better bring some kind of offering
[E]
If you want to make it out alive
Chorus 2
[D] [A]
He said "I've had problems with the bottle"
[D] [A]
Yeah I've read over the Bible
[D] [A] [E]
And I believe in God, just don't know if he believes in me
[D] [A]
It's a counterfeit revival
[D] [A]
For all the lonely folk in trouble
[D] [A] [E]
But you'll never see a preacher put the hate all over me
Chorus 3
[D] [A]
Now I've never been in church
[D] [A]
But I've known a couple of things
[D] [A]
If you play cards with the devil
[E]
He knows each trick up your sleeve
[D] [A]
Now the temperature is rising
[D] [A]
I was sweating from the heat
[D] [A]
Yeah I've got my sheriff's code
[E]
So just don't keep him close to me
[D] [A]
I've seen crazy things
Outro
