Church in a Chevy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up today and the world felt heavy
So, I grabbed my keys and I went for a drive
Followed some county road wherever it led me
Passed a fella on a porch and a Texaco sign
Crossed a bridge running over a creek
Miles of fields far as I could see
And there wasn't no steeple, wasn't no people, wasn't no pews
But right there at a little past two
[Chorus]
I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
And "Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
(Church in a Chevy)
[Verse 2]
So, I soaked it up and lost track of time
Started laying all my worries down
It was just some pavement and some faded white lines
But that highway felt like holy ground
And there wasn't no preacher, wasn't no choir, wasn't no words
But it was the best sermon I've ever heard
I woke up today and the world felt heavy
So, I grabbed my keys and I went for a drive
Followed some county road wherever it led me
Passed a fella on a porch and a Texaco sign
Crossed a bridge running over a creek
Miles of fields far as I could see
And there wasn't no steeple, wasn't no people, wasn't no pews
But right there at a little past two
[Chorus]
I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
And "Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
(Church in a Chevy)
[Verse 2]
So, I soaked it up and lost track of time
Started laying all my worries down
It was just some pavement and some faded white lines
But that highway felt like holy ground
And there wasn't no preacher, wasn't no choir, wasn't no words
But it was the best sermon I've ever heard
[Chorus]
I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
And "Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
Oh, I went to church in a Chevy (Chevy)
[Bridge]
And I thought a little
And I prayed a little
And I left there, and I changed a little
[Chorus]
'Cause I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
"Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
And "Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
Oh, I went to church in a Chevy (Chevy)
[Bridge]
And I thought a little
And I prayed a little
And I left there, and I changed a little
[Chorus]
'Cause I went to church in a Chevy on a two-lane on a side of the road
Sun coming up, cutting through the live oaks
Wind through the windows like a whisper on a breeze
Out there in the quiet, heard Him talking to me
"Amazing Grace" came flooding through the windshield
Felt some broken parts of me start to heal
My lost getting found, no one else around
Middle of nowhere dirt, I went to church in a Chevy
[Outro]
(Went to church in a Chevy)
(Went to church in a Chevy)
I went to church in a Chevy
(Went to church in a Chevy)
(Went to church in a Chevy)
(Went to church in a Chevy)
(Went to church in a Chevy)
I went to church in a Chevy
(Went to church in a Chevy)
(Went to church in a Chevy)

What did Jordan Davis say about "Church in a Chevy"?
Genius Answer
A May 2020 The Boot article quotes Davis saying:
When I’m out in the woods or out by myself fishing on the water is when I have those conversations, and I just loved that idea and loved the heart of the song. I just wanted something that I was really, really proud of … I’ve written a lot of songs, and I’ve gotta say, that’s probably my favorite one.
