The other version doesn't have the little riff that is played throughout this
song and it is also wrong. There is no E minor in this song at all, just the
1, 4, and 5 chords
(like so many great tunes.)
CAPO 3 to match The Avett's version.
Riff used throughout: YOU PUT IT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE

I've never taken this curve, driving this fast before
G D G C G D G
A glowing stop sign but both lanes are mine no seatbelts attached to my door.
G D G G D G
Well my Speed meter don't work, so I'm gonna guess 95.
G D G C G D G
Well maybe I'll fix it and maybe I won't it depends on my being alive.
G D G G D G
Well my bottle of bourbon is gone. Flew away all by itself.
G D G C G D G
So if ever you find it my photo behind it in memory of me on your shelf.
G D G G D G
Well my 63' Ford is a bull. She's 4000 pounds at least.
G D G C G D
But metal surrenders when oak trees meet fenders and engines go through
G
the front seat.
G D G G D G
Well I lost control in the curve, and a gas line broke in the wreck
G D G C G D
I walked from the ashes with just a few scratches my crucifix warm
G
on my neck.
G D G G D G
Well my good lord was with me tonight. Riding beside me tonight.
G D G C G
And now we're just talking we're hitch-hiking walking we'll see you in
D G
Concord tonight.
G D G C
And now we're just walking we're hitch-hiking talking we'll
G D G C G
see you......in concord.......tonight.
There you go. More accurate than the other one. Just put the riff thingy
where it belongs.
