Said, "Angel, Do you want a ride?"

It was a long road that stretched from Vegas to nowhere
C
But it'd been an even longer time
G G7
Since he'd found some peace of mind
C
And he lived off of bubblegum and cigarettes
G
And got his nourishment from all-night stores
C
Just thought he'd just keep driving
G G7
'Til he outdrove his sorrow
[Chorus]
C Fm G C
He said, "Angel, Oh do you want a ride?"
C G Fm G
Said "Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
Fm G C G G7
And I need somebody by my side"
[Verse]
C
Her feet were worn and tired
G
But as determined as her soul
C
She left with no regrets
G G7
But also no posessions did she own
C G
Her heart was as fragile as her thin, loving arms
C
She's praying to God to take away her lonely
G G7
When he pulled on the side of the road
[Chorus]
C Fm G C
And he said, "Angel, Oh do you want a ride?"
C G Fm G
"I said, angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
Fm G C G G7
And I need somebody by my side"
[Verse]
C
The highway goes on forever
G
I've seen a thousand men like him before
C
And I've seen a thousand angels that
G G7
Got into the car
C
They're just a couple of lost souls
G G7
Looking to rekindle some forgotten dream
C
I hope they find what they're looking for
G G7
In the solace of the road
[Chorus]
C Fm G C
And they said, "Angel, Do you want a ride?"
C G Fm G
"I said, "Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
Fm G
I'm tired and I'm lonely
Fm G
I'm tired and I'm lonely
Fm G
And I need to have somebody
C
By my angel"
