Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][F][C][G][C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
There's [C]a cross
on the highway
Where the [F]tragic wreck oc[C]curred
And I lost two friends taken
To a better [G]world
Oh there's [C]stop signs
and there's curves
But the [F]one we got to observe
[C]Always bow[Am] your head and
pray [F]anytime
Night or day [C]whenever you see a cross on
The [G]side of [F]the high[C] way

[Verse 2]
[C]
Now Derrick Thomas was a champion
[F]No one can deny tha[C]t
He led the Alabama Crimson Tide
In all time total sack[G]s[C]
But his heart was even bigger
[Gm]Than[F] all his natural skill[C]
He always helped kids in the
City [F]and you know what
[G]I think he always wil[C]l
Now my buddy Mike Tellis was a
[F]Good man everyone loved him [C]so
He took care of his dear father 'til
He too [Am]was called [G]to go
[C]How my little girl cri[Edim]ed when we
[F]All got the dreaded [C]news
She said but Daddy Derrick and Mike
Will [Am]always be [G]with us
Don't [C]children always tell [F]the truth[C]
I never [D]paid no attention any[G]time
I passed one [D]by oh but now
I say a prayer
Because [A]now I know [D]why
There's a cross on the highway
Where the [G]tragic wreck oc[D]curred
And I lost my two good friends
Taken to a better [A]world
Oh there's [D]stop signs and curves but
The [G]one we must ob[D]serve
Always [Bm]bow your head and pray
[G]Anytime night or day
[Em]When[D]ever you see a
cross on the [A]high[D]way
I saw it in the morning paper [G]we
Hear it on the evening [D]news
A mother, a child
A family life sometimes
can [A]be mighty [G]cruel
[D]So God help us through these troubled times
[G]And please bless us wit[D]h
peace of mind
There's just a shell there in the grave
[A]For the soul has flo[D]wn awa[Bb]y[Cm][Bb][Eb]

[Verse 3]
Always [Cm]bow your head and pray
Any[Ab]time night or day

on the [Bb]highway
