_ The way past midnight, _ everyone's [A] asleep, _ _ outside the window, _ it's quiet on the street.
My bags are packed, and [G] my guitar too. _
The [A] taxi's coming, _ there's nothing I can do.
_ _ _ Oh Lord, _ keep your eye on [G] my friends.
[D] _ I [A] just feel better, _ knowing you're [A] watching me. _ _
I gotta roll up, take [G] a little stand.
_ [E] _ Why [A] Lord, _ keep your eye [D] on my friends. _ _ _ _
_ But _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ I gotta get home, _ the only way I [G] know.
_ _ It's a long [A] old road, _ steady [D] and slow. _ _
One of these days _ I'll [G] come back.
[E] _ If the [A] creek don't rise, _ _ and stuff like that.
_ _ Oh Lord, _ keep your eye on this [G] place. _ _
Keep it [A] warm, _ keep it safe.
_ You know I depend on your [G] saving grace.
Oh [A] I know, _ keep your eye on [D] this place. _

_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ Now this is just a prayer, _
[D] like [G] any other.
_ _ It's [A] nothing more, _ and it's nothing less. _ _
It's just a prayer, like [G]
any other.
_ [A] One more time, _ if you just say yes. _ _ _
Oh Lord, _ keep your eye [G] on me. _ _
You know [A] how foolish, and reckless I [D] can be.
_ Light up my way, so [G] I can see.
_ _ _ [A]
Oh Lord, _ keep your eye on me. _
_ Oh Lord, _ keep your eye on my friends.
_ _ _ Oh Lord, _ don't let the blue door fall over you.
I'll be back. _
