[D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
Verse One:
[D]One day when I was a little [A]down on my luck
I [G]stood on the h[A]ighway in the [D]rain
And I sent up a prayer for a [A]Heaven-bound truck
And like an [G]angel a [A]diesel it [D]came
Verse Two:
The truck driver said he was a good Christian man
and he laid the salvation on thick
He held two plastic statues in the palm of his hand
and told me to just take my pick
Chorus:
He said [G]I keep my [A]face in the [D]highway
That [G]dashboard's a [D]good place [A]stand
I'd rather have [D]Jesus [A]watch where I'm [G]going
'Cause He [D]already [A]knows where I've [D]been
Verse Three:
Somewhere across Texas, we parted ways
But I kept his advice through the years
Whenever I'm driving I make sure it stays
Between the radio dial and the mirror
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
Bridge:
He [A]knows where I've [D]drifted, He [G]knows where I've sinned
He's [A]there to make [D]sure I don't [G]go there again
A [A]guy like me [D]needs all the [G]help he can [C]get
So as a [G]gentle re[D]minder I'm [G]not perfect [A]yet
Chorus:
And I keep my face in the highway
That dashboard's a good place stand
I'd rather have Jesus watch where I'm going
'Cause He already knows where I've been
I'd rather have [D]Jesus [A]watch where I'm [G]going
'Cause He [D]already [A]knows where I've [D]been
