  			D                                   G  
It's way past midnight, everyone asleep   
              A                        D  
Outside the window it's quiet on the street   
              D               G  
My bags are packed, my guitar too   
         A                    D  
Taxi's coming, nothin' I can do   

D                              G  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on my friends   
               A                              D  
I'd just feel better knowing you're watching them   
      D                          G  
I've got to roll, take a little spin   
            A                          D  
While I'm gone, keep your eye on my friends  

           D                   G  
Gotta get home the only way I know   
               A                D  
The long old road, steady and slow   
               D              G  
One of these days I'll come back   
               A                        D  
If the creek don't rise and stuff like that  
   
     D                           G  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on this place   
          A            D  
Keep it warm, keep it safe   
         D                        G  
You know I depend on your saving grace   
          A                           D  
While I'm gone keep your eye on this place  


Bridge:
   
    D                           G  
This is just a prayer like any other   
   A                    D  
Nothing more, nothing less   
 D                  G  
A prayer like any other   
     A                         D  
One more time could you just say yes  

    D                    G  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on me   
      A                                D  
You know how foolish and reckless I can be   
    D                     G  
Light my way up, so I can see   
    A                    D  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on me   
    D                          G  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on my friends   
    A                           D  
Oh Lord, keep your eye on this place
