The video for this song has been playing on GAC and I remember hearing it
for the first time thinking what a great song this is.  It's so simple yet
the lyric and rythym are great.  Hope yall enjoy this one, comments appreciated

intro: F-C-G-C

C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
                                                 G
I've been out here in this world too long on my own
        F
I won't bother you no more
                C
If you can just get me in the door
     G                                C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home


C
When I started out I was so young and so strong
                                                G
I just let it roll off my back when things went wrong
         F
Now it's starting to get to me
        C
All of this inhumanity
    G                                 C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home


F                       C
You wouldn't know it by looking at me now
F                              C
But I was showing some promise once upon a time
G
But it's gone now
G
And it ain't coming back
G
My time's come and gone
G
It's as simple as that


C
Hey Jesus this world is just too troublesome for me
                                                     G
I try to fight off all these devils but I'm just too weak
         F
When I'm out here walking all alone
            C
I feel like taking my life but I won't
          G                                   C
Too big a coward, can you give me a ride back home
    G                                 C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
    G                                 C
Hey Jesus can you give me a ride back home
