Cody Jinks – The Plea (Guitar)

Am    C                        F
Mama,     this highway's gonna kill me

    Am    C                      F
And mama,     I think my rose is wilting

    Am                              C
The kids and her alone while I'm so far away from home

          F
I feel so guilty

Am     C                       F          C  F
Mama,     this highway's gonna kill me

G                                        Am
I hope the road that takes me there will always bring me back

      F                       G
But I guess whatever will be, will be

F          G               C
Mama, this highway's gonna kill me

Am      C                     F
Woman,      I wish I wouldn't hurt you

    Am      C                     F
And woman,     It's clear I don't deserve you

Am                              C                                F
I know it seems I only need you when I ain't got nowhere else to turn to

   Am      C                    F         C  F
So woman,     I wish I wouldn't hurt you

    G                                  Am
I'm sure there's some relief in giving up and moving on

    F                                  G
And sometimes it seems way too much to work through

F        G              C         F
Woman, I never meant to hurt you

Am     C                F
Lord,     I beg of you, protect me

Am        C                          F
Lately,     swear the devil's out to get me

Am                                 C                       F
It ain't a leap of faith to say he always preys upon the unsuspecting

Am        C                F
So Lord,     I beg of you, protect me

G                            Am
I can't walk with you if the devil's got my hand

  F                         G
I hope you have my back and direct me

F        G           Am
Jesus, I beg of you, protect me

   F        Gm          C       F
Oh Jesus, don't let 'em get me
