[Verse 1]
A
Who did you say it was brother?
                       E
Who was it fell by the way?
     A
When whiskey and blood run together
    A        E      A
Did you hear anyone pray?
 
 
[Chorus]
  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray
  A
I heard the crash on the highway
      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

[Verse 2]
       A
When I heard the crash on the highway
                            E
I knew what it was from the start
  A
I went to the scene of destruction
      A           E             A
And a picture was stamped on my heart
 
          A
There was whiskey and blood all together
                            E
Mixed with glass where they lay
         A
There to lay their hand in destruction
      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray
 
 
[Chorus]
  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray
  A
I heard the crash on the highway
      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray

[Verse 3]
  A
I wish I could change this sad story
                      E
That I am now telling you
    A
But there is no way I can change it
    A          E           A
For somebody's life is now through
 
      A
Their soul has been called by the Master
                            E
They died in a crash on the way
      A
And I heard the groans of the dying
      A           E      A
But I didn't hear nobody pray
 
 
[Chorus]
  A           D      A
I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother
  D                  A
I didn't hear nobody pray
  A
I heard the crash on the highway
      A N.C.      E N.C. A
But I didn't hear nobody pray
