[Verse 1]
  C
A farmer and a teacher,
C/B  Am                   Am7/G
   a hooker and a preacher
F                        C               G
Riding on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
        C
One was headed for vacation,
C/B        Am              Am7/G
   one for higher education
    F                    G             C
And two of them were searching for lost souls

[Pre-Chorus]
     Dm                            G
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
    Dm                                    G
And eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime

[Chorus]
         C                 G               Am
There are three wooden crosses on the right  side of the
    Am7/G
highway
F
 Why there's not four of them,
C                G
Heaven only knows
            C                 G         Am
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world
      Am7/G
behind     you
     F                    G               C
It's what you leave behind you when you go

[Verse 2]
     C                     C/B  Am
That farmer left a harvest,   a home,
                Am7/G
and eighty acres
    F                                 C
The faith and love for growing things in his young son's
G
heart
         C                      C/B       Am
And that teacher left her wisdom   in the minds of lots of
        Am7/G
children
            F                    G              C
And did her best to give them all a better start

[Pre-Chorus]
         Dm
And that preacher whis pered,
                      G
"Can't you see the Promised Land?"
               Dm                                      G
As he laid his bloodstained Bible in that hooker's hand

[Chorus]
         C                 G               Am
There are three wooden crosses on the right  side of the
    Am7/G
highway
F
 Why there's not four of them,
C                G
Heaven only knows
            C                 G         Am
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world
      Am7/G
behind     you
     F                    G               C
It's what you leave behind you when you go

[Bridge]
           Am                 G              F
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
          C                               G
As he held that bloodstained Bible up for all of us to see
                       Am              G
He said, "Bless the farmer, and the teacher,
        F
and the preacher
              Dm
Who gave this Bible to my mama,
    G
who read it to me"

[Chorus]
         C                 G               Am
There are three wooden crosses on the right  side of the
    Am7/G
highway
F
 Why there's not four of them,
C                  G
now I guess we know
C                      G              Am
 It's not what you take when you leave  this world
      Am7/G
behind     you
     F                    G               C
It's what you leave behind you when you go

[Outro]
         C                 G               Am    Am7/G
There are three wooden crosses on the right  side     of
    C
the highway
