intro= F C G C

verse 1
C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
C                                               G
I've been out here in this world too long on my own
        F
I won't bother you no more
           C
If you can just get me in the door
    G                                C
Hey Jesus can you get me a ride back home 

F C G C

verse 2
When I started out I was so young and so strong
I just let it roll off my back when things went wrong
Now it's starting to get to me
All of this inhumanity
Hey Jesus can you get me a ride back home

bridge
F                       C
You wouldn't know it by looking at me now
F                               G
But I was showning some promise once upon a time
G
But it's gone now...and it ain't comin back
G
My time's come and gone...it's as simple as that

verse3
Hey Jesus this world is too troublesome for me
I try to fight off all these devils but I'm just too weak
When I'm out here walking alone
I feel like taking my life but I won't
Too big a coward, can you get me a ride back home
Hey Jesus can you get me a ride back home
Hey Jesus can you get me a ride back home
