VERSE 1:
--------
E
Billy Ray was a preacher's son
A E
and when his daddy would visit he'd come along
E
When they gathered round and started talking
B
cousin Billy would take me walking
Through the backyard we'd go walking
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my surprise
CHORUS:
-------
E
The only one who could ever reach me
A E
was a son of a preacher man
E
The only boy who could ever teach me
A E
was a son of a preacher man
B
Yes he was, he was
A
Ooh yes he was
After the chorus you play this:

VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]
--------
Being good isn't always easy,
No matter how hard I tried,
When he started sweet talking to me,
He'd come tell me everything is alright,
He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright,
Can I get away again tonight?
CHORUS:
-------
E
The only one who could ever reach me
A E
was a son of a preacher man
E
The only boy who could ever teach me
A E
was a son of a preacher man
B
Yes he was, he was
A
Ooh yes he was
BRIDGE:
-------
D
(Yes he was)
How well I remember,
A
The look that was in his eyes,
Stealing kisses from me on the sly,
B
Taking time to make time,
Telling me that he's all mine,
E
Learning from each others knowing,
Looking to see how much we'd grown.
CHORUS:
-------
