Chrome Hymnal

[Intro]
[Verse]
Midnight oil in the pan
Grease beneath my dirty nails
Wrenching on a broken man
Chasing down the rusty trails
Found the Caddy in the shed
Dusty ghost of what he said
[Pre-Chorus]
Cracked cross on the dash
Faded hymns in the ash
Spark plugs firing like a choir
Setting this old heart on fire
[Chorus]
Oh, let the engine sing
Feel that V8 glory ring
Oil and water, bread and wine
Fixing up this soul of mine
Stank-face rhythm in the steel
Jesus at the steering wheel
[Post-Chorus]
(Can I get a witness?)
(Amen in the chrome)
(Take me to the limit)
(Drive the spirit home)
[Verse]
Baritone sax starts to moan
Just like Daddy's deepest tone
Wurlitzer shaking the floor
I don't feel lost anymore
Scraping off the layers of pride
Something holy deep inside
[Build-up]
Shaker moving in my hand
Clapping for a higher land
Bass is slapping on the frame
Whisper out his sacred name
[Chorus]
Oh, let the engine sing
Feel that V8 glory ring
Oil and water, bread and wine
Fixing up this soul of mine
Stank-face rhythm in the steel
Jesus at the steering wheel
[Bridge]
Neon light is flickering green
Cleanest soul I’ve ever seen
From the junkyard to the throne
I am never truly alone
Iron heart and heavy hands
Fulfilling all the Lord’s commands
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Oh, let the engine sing
Feel that V8 glory ring
Oil and water, bread and wine
Fixing up this soul of mine
Stank-face rhythm in the steel
Jesus at the steering wheel
[Post-Chorus]
(Can I get a witness?)
(Amen in the chrome)
(Take me to the limit)
(Drive the spirit home)
[Outro]
