Wreck On The Highway - Bruce Springsteen

| A | A | A | A

A                          D
Last night I was out driving
A                                        | E E4 | E
Coming home at the end of the working day
       A
I was riding alone through the drizzling rain
       D
On a deserted stretch of a county two lane
        A          E                A
When I came upon a wreck on the highway

                                     D
Now there was blood and glass all over 
A                               | E E4 | E
And there was nobody there but me
            A
As the rain tumbled down hard and cold
         D
I seen a young man lying by the side of the road
          A       E                 A    
He cried Mister, won't you help me please

                                                  D
An ambulance finally came and took him to Riverside
A                              | E E4 | E
I watched as they drove him away
       A
And I thought of a girlfriend or a young wife
       D
And a state trooper knocking in the middle of the night
             A              E               A
To say your baby died in a wreck on the highway

                                 D
Sometimes I sit up in the darkness
A                               | E E4 | E
And I watch my baby as she sleeps
       A
Then I climb in bed and I hold her tight
       D
I just lay there awake in the middle of the nigth
         A         E                  A
Thinking 'bout the wreck on the highway
