Three Wooden Crosses

I made this on a C-harp as I'am a beginner and it's my first and only so far.


-5  6  6   6  6  6  5   -4  5  5   5 -5  5 -4  4
 A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher
-5 -5  -5 -5 -5  5  -4 4   5    5  -5 5-4  
 Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
 5  -5   6  6    6  6  6  5    4   -4  5  5  5 -5 5 -4 4
One was headin' for vacation, one for higher education
 4   3   3  -5   -5   -5   5   -4    4    4
And two of them were searchin' for lost souls
 
 
 5   -5 -5  -5 -5 -5 5  -4  4    4   -4
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
 5   -5  -5   -5  -5    -5   5   -4 4   3
And eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime
 
 
(chorus)
  5    6    6    6  6   6   4   4  -4   5    5   5  -5  5 -4  4
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
-5   -5     -5   -5   5 -4 4  5  5  -5 5  -4
Why there's not four of them Heaven only knows
5  -5    6    6   6    6   6    4   -4    5     5    5    -5 5  -4 4
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
 -3   3    3   -5   -5 -5   5   -4   4   4
It's what you leave behind you when you go
 
 
(same as first)
That farmer left a harvest, a home and 80 acres
The faith and love for growin' things in his young son's heart
And that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give 'em all a better start
 
 
-4   5    -5  5    -5    5     -5    5  -4   4   4   -4   -4 
And that preacher whispered, "Can't you see the promised land?"
 3 3  -4   5   -5      5    -5 5  -5  5   -4   4    3  
As he lay his blood stained Bible in that hooker's hand
 
 
(chorus)
 
 
  4    -4   5  5   5   5   5  -4    4    -3   4  4
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
 5 -5  6    6     6      6     6 6  4   3   3   3 -3  4 -4
As he held that blood stained Bible up for all of us to see
 4  4       4   -4  -4  5   5   5   5  -4  -4   4   4   4
He said, "Bless the farmer and the teacher and the preacher
-4   -4   5   -5 -5 -5  6 -5 5   6    6  6  5  6
who gave this Bible to my momma who read it to me"
 
 
  5    6    6    6 -6   6   4  4  -4    5    5   5  -5   5  4
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
-5    -5     6   -5  5  -4 4  5  5  -5   5   -4
Why there's not four of them now I guess we know
 5 6  6    6  -6   6    4   -4    5     5    5   -5  5   4
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you
 4    3    3   -5   -5  -5  5   -4   4   4
It's what you leave behind you when you go
 
  5    6    6    6 -6   6   5  4  -4    5    5   4   3 -4 5-4 4
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
