[Intro] B A B7 B A B7 E [Verse]
E
Two night stand in Tulsa

E
Pullin' out and headed west

E
Brett he grabbed the Gideon's

E
From the hotel in the desk

            A7
And we said what's the matter brother

        A7
Are you worried about your soul

        E
He said better safe than sorry boys

E
That's just how I roll

   B7
We hit the road a feeling cool

B7
As Crosby Stills and Nash

    E
Overflowing with the spirit

        B7           E
And the bible on the dash
[Verse]
E
We Pulled the whole thing over

E
For the flashin' reds and blues

E
Police came to the window we said

E
Have you heard the news

     A7
Now don't get smart with me boy

A7
Why you doing ninety-five

                E
My foot is heavy with redemption

E
I'm just blessed to be alive

          B7
He said I oughta pull you outta there

    B7
And beat you black and blue

                E
I placed my hand upon the good book

         B7               E
And said what would Jesus do
[Chorus]
     A7
It's better than insurance

A7
Registration or lying

        E
It's better than these fake IDs
I have to keep buying
     A7
It's even better than an envelope
Stuffed with cash
     B7
They always said it'd save me

B7                         E
That old bible on the dash
[Verse]
E
Around these parts a hair alone

E
Will make probable cause

E
If you're moving through my county

E
You'll obey my earthly laws

       A7
Yes we did our best to quote

A7
Some holy writ chapter and verse

           E
What kinda music you boys making

        E
We said Christian music sir

B7
He thought about it

B7
Contemplated

B7
Twirled his cop mustache
N.C. Alright you boys be careful now N.C. Just don't drive quite so fast [Chorus]
     A7
It's better than insurance

A7
Registration or lying

        E
It's better than these fake IDs
I keep on buying
     A7
It's even better than an envelope
Stuffed with cash
     B7
They always said it'd save me

B7                         E
That old bible on the dash
[Instrumental Break] B A B7 B A B7 E E A7 E B7 A7 E [Verse]
E
Crossin' at the border

E
A few months later we heard freeze

E
Pull in over there son

E
We're gonna do some search and seize

      A7
Maybe if we'd been more famous

A7
He'd a said just move along

E
If he's a seen us on the TV

E
If we had hit single songs

          B7
Well he's just about to ask us

B7
Were's the money guns and hash

      E
I was hoping it'd save me

         B7           E
That old bible on the dash
[Verse]
E
His hand was on his pistol

E
And his dog was on his leash

E
And that shepherd he was a keeping

E
A pretty close eye on his sheep

         A7
We got a list we gonna look at

A7
See if we can't find your names

       E
We got parabolic laser beams

E
Hears everything you say

       B7
We got ultravoilet x-rays

         B7
That can see right through your bus
N.C. I guess we'll see if the good Lord's N.C. Truly watching over us [Chorus]
     A7
It's better than a green card

A7
It's better than lying

        E
It's better than these work visas
I keep on buying
     A7
Even better than an envelope
Stuffed with cash
     B7
Lord I'm at the border

B7                         E
With the bible on the dash
[Outro] B A B7 B A B7 E
