Nitty Gritty Dirt Band – Wreck On The Highway (Guitar)

A
Who did you say it was brother?

                       E
Who was it fell by the way?

     A
When whiskey and blood run together

    A        E      A
Did you hear anyone pray?

  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother

  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray

  A
I heard the crash on the highway

      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

       A
When I heard the crash on the highway

                            E
I knew what it was from the start

  A
I went to the scene of destruction

      A           E             A
And a picture was stamped on my heart

          A
There was whiskey and blood all together

                            E
Mixed with glass where they lay

         A
There to lay their hand in destruction

      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother

  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray

  A
I heard the crash on the highway

      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

  A
I wish I could change this sad story

                      E
That I am now telling you

    A
But there is no way I can change it

    A          E           A
For somebody's life is now through

      A
Their soul has been called by the Master

                            E
They died in a crash on the way

      A
And I heard the groans of the dying

      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother

  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray

  A
I heard the crash on the highway

      A N.C.      E N.C. A
But I didn't hear nobody pray
