	        INTRO: C  Am (4x) 
 
C                Am                              
GOD DRIVES A ?69 CHEVY IMPALA  
     C                         Am 
WITH STAINED GLASS WINDOWS AND HYPER-STROBE HEADLIGHTS 
G                                               C 
YOU CAN HEAR HIS ENGINE WHINE AT THE END?OF THE RADIO DIAL. 
C                 Am               
SATURDAY NIGHT IN PIEDRAS NEGRAS, 
C                      Am  
NOTHING TO DO HERE BUT DRINK CHEAP TEQUILA  
G                                         C 
AND WONDER WHETHER LIFE IS A TREASURE?????OR A TRIAL. 
 
CHORUS 
 
F                         G 
SOMEDAY WE?LL MEET ON THE EDGE OF THAT RIVER, 
C                          F 
AND WE?LL FLY AWAY TO SOME FAR, DISTANT LAND, 
      C          F           G              C 
WHERE ANGELS AND OUTLAWS CAN WALK?. HAND IN HAND. 
 
I THINK OF HER AS AN ANGEL ABOVE ME, 
I COUNT THE TIMES SHE HAS TOLD ME SHE LOVES ME. 
BUT NOW I AM BOUND ??TO LIVE OUT MY DAYS ON THE RUN. 
SOMETIMES SALVATION IS LOST TO SURVIVAL  
I LIVE BY THE PISTOL, SHE LIVES BY THE BIBLE. 
BUT WE?LL MEET AGAIN OVER THERE?. WHEN OUR WORK HERE IS DONE. 
 
CHORUS  
F                             G 
SOME OF MY FRIENDS, THEY HAVE TAKEN THE HIGH ROAD, 
    C                F 
BUT I HAD TO SEE THE THIRD WORLD FIRST-HAND. 
F                    G 
LIFE IS A MIXTURE OF SHUFFLES AND TANGOS 
    C                   F 
AND RHYTHMS AND REASONS I DON?T UNDERSTAND 
F                           G 
I?M A STRANGER IN A STRANGE LIGHT. 
F          G        C 
GOD, HOW I MISS HER TONIGHT. 
 
C               Am 
GOD PLAYS A ?59 BLACK STRATOCASTER  
C                        Am 
WITH VIBROLUX REVERB AND BIG BANG PRECISION 
        G                                                 C 
YOU CAN HEAR HIS HOLY MUSIC TONIGHT ON THE BACK STREETS OF MAN. 
 
CHORUS
