CmJimmy Sparks went into bars and opened up his mouth
CmSaid some things to wounded men that they could not allow
F FWhen it came to talking, he was always on the run
Cm CmEveryone knew what the man had done
G G F CmOh, he'll take you for a ride
[Verse 1]
Cm Cm Bb AbJimmy believed in the American way
Ab FA prison guard, he worked hard and made the minimum wage
CmHe found his freedom like a man in a cage, oh
Cm Cm Bb AbJimmy loved Bonnie and he fathered a kid
Ab FA baby boy, but the mother had other reasons to live
CmShe left the baby with a note on the bed, oh
Cm Bb AbIt was a struggle just to cover the rent

Eb Dm CmHe needed money and he needed it quick

Ab G CmOh, my love, oh, my love
Ab G CmCould you spare my blood, spare my blood?
[Verse 2]
CmJim woke his son and buckled him in the car
CmThey drove an hour from town and found a gambling hall
F CmThe waitress babysat the boy at the bar, oh no
CmAfter an hour, Jimmy doubled his cash
GHe took his kid and his winnings as the dealer just laughed
F Ab G CmHe said they leave, but then they always come back, that's a fact
CmOut on the road, they caught a stranger in the lights
GHis thumb was up and his son asked if the man was alright
F Ab G CmJim said you never give a hitcher a ride 'cause it's us or them
CmIt was 3 AM
[Chorus]
Ab G CmOh, my love, oh, my love

AbBroke Jimmy's habits, got in mountains and mountains of debt
F Ab G CmAnd now the sharks are coming back to collect, oh-oh
CmThey stripped his jewelry and the boots off Jim's feet
AbThey kick him out the car and say we'll give you a week
F Ab G CmEight miles from home and only 18 degrees
It was 3 AM
[Chorus]
Ab G CmOh, my love, oh, my love
Ab G CmCould you spare my blood, spare my blood?

CmNow Jimmy's son is trying to make his way home
AbHis graveyard shift had ended and it was starting to snow
F Ab GHe sees an old man walking barefoot alone
CmIt was 3 AM

AbBut Jimmy's son just sped up and remembered daddy's advice
F Ab GNo, you don't ever give a hitcher a ride 'cause it's us or them
CmCause it's me or him
CmIt was 3 AM
