The other version doesn't have the little riff that is played throughout this
song and it is also wrong. There is no E minor in this song at all, just the
1, 4, and 5 chords (like so many great tunes).
Riff used throughout: YOU PUT IT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE

I've never taken this curve, driving this fast before
G D G C G D G
A glowing stop sign but both lanes are mine, no seatbelts attached to my door.
G D G G D G
Well, my speed meter don't work, so I'm gonna guess 95.
G D G C G D G
Well, maybe I'll fix it and maybe I won't, it depends on my being alive.
G D G G D G
Well, my bottle of bourbon is gone. Flew away all by itself.
G D G C G D G
So if ever you find it, my photo behind it in memory of me on your shelf.
G D G G D G
Well, it's been raining all day, and it's been raining all night
G D G C G
A slip and slide highway, and I'm moving sideways, I'm loose
D G
But my steering wheel's tight
G D G G D G
Well, my '63 Ford is a bull. She's 4000 pounds at least.
G D G C G D
But metal surrenders when oak trees meet fenders and engines go through
G
the front seat.
G D G G D G
Well, I lost control in the curve, and a gas line broke in the wreck
G D G C G D
I walked from the ashes with just a few scratches, my crucifix warm
G
on my neck.
G D G G D G
Well, my good lord was with me tonight. Just riding beside me tonight.
G D G C G
And now we're just talking, hitch-hiking, walking, we'll see you in
D G
Concord tonight.
G D G C
Yeah, now we're just walking, we're hitch-hiking, talking, we'll
G D G C G
see you..... in Concord...... tonight.
