"JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL" CARRIE UNDERWOOD

VERSE 1

She was driving last Friday

On her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama

And her Daddy with the baby

In the backseat
Fifty miles to go

And she was running low

On faith and gasoline
It'd been a long hard year

VERSE 2

She had a lot on her mind

And she didn't pay attention
She was going way too fast
Before she knew it

She was spinning on a thin

Black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives

Flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was so scared
She threw her hands up in the air

CHORUS

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

VERSE 3

It was still getting colder

When she made it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw

That baby in the backseat

Sleeping like a rock
And for the first time

In a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Oh, take it, take it from me.
Oh, wow, ohhhhh.
