Daddy was under [G] Randy [A] was I got nervous I have to be honest she was
[E] Today Danny walked in [A] with the [B] Carrie Underwood [A] record Jesus take the wheel and so I start reading off the paper
[E]
And [N] I messed up [Am] again, she [E] didn't even have time to cry and [A] again [E] before she knew it she was
[A] And again, I can just get the word she was driving [E] last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
[F#m] She's one [E] of those you better hope that that night
You are close to a hundred percent before [F#m] when Danny was [E] singing the pieces that he knew man
It's a [G] soulfulness that [A] most of us who?
[N] Make a living as a singer wish that we had
I
Ladies and gentlemen
[A] [D] [A] She was [E] driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati [F#m] on a snow white [E] Christmas Eve
[A] [E] Going home to see her mama and her [F#m] daddy with the [E] baby in the backseat
[A] 50 miles ago.
[E] She was running low [F#m] on faith and [E] gasoline
[D] It's been a long hot
[A] She had a lot on her [E] mind and she didn't pay [F#m] attention she was going [E] way too fast
[A] Before [E] she knew it.
She was [F#m] spinning on a thin black [E] sheet of glass
[A] She saw both the [E] lights flash before her eyes
[F#m] She [E] didn't even have time to [D] cry.
She was so scared
She [A] threw her hands up in the air
[E] Jesus take the wheel
Take it from [B] my head
Cuz I can't do [F#m] this
[E] on [A] my own
[E] Ain't gonna
Give me one [B] more chance
Save me from [F#] this [G#m] moment
[A]
Jesus take the [E] wheel
[B]
Yeah
[F#m] [E] Oh
[A]
[E] Give me one [B] more
[F#m] [E] moment
[A]
[F] [E] Oh
Jesus take the wheel
When [N]
you hit your stride it's like none other I mean it's just like
Half of that performance for me was not spectacular but halfway through it was like here comes Danny
Danny came out of his shell and went straight up and I wish I'd had ten minutes of that and not the front
Cuz really when you get up there and you hit those powerful notes, [A#] it's a connection unlike anything
[N] So when you pick those songs be careful that you're picking them in that range I
kind of disagree in the sense that I love when when artists build a story and that they
I know that the that Danny
I love [Fm] it.
We all wait for it
[C] If [G] it was [E] always that notch then [A#] we I you know, we'd love it
But we'd follow a little short like is appreciating you.
I think you [N] were brilliant
I think Carrie Underwood would not only approve she got and buy that record.
I
Don't think she'd rush out to buy it, but I do actually agree with Paula that I think that
Song full on, you know, I mean you've got to have a little bit of light and shade
You can't scream the song from the beginning
My only problem Danny is that you what you're wearing?
It's like you're going on some sort of polar expedition or something and it's
80-degrees in [B] Los Angeles today.
Don't talk to him about fashion Danny.
Don't talk to him [N] about fashion
But it's not cold is it no, it's not, you know, imagine Rod says I'm real funny
He said I look like I was getting ready to jump out of an [D#] airplane in the [A#] air [G#m] Okay, I
Actually today [N] agree with Kara the problem with with you and the verses the rest of the song do you blaze it was crazy, right?
Yeah
But the [D#m] verses you got to [C] support those enough because you're a great [N] singer and you want to get better on this show and the
Verses will pitch you in a little just support them better man, but you're a great singer
[G#]
[F#]
So we're split down the middle at the panel, did you feel yourself
Letting go [B] during that song.
Is that intentional?
Yeah.
[F#m] Well, I wanted to start it slow
You know, it's [F#] it's a low song right there.
That's and so I didn't know what to do with this
So I just I try you know, I know one thing I need [E] to clean up and [F#] like he said I agree through Randy
I'm still trying to clean it up and I'm gonna keep cleaning it up
