r> Billy Ray was a preacher's son
r> A E
r> And when his daddy'd visit he'd come along
When they gathered round and started talking
That's when Billy would take me walking,
all through the backyard we'd go walking,
then he'd looked into my eyes,
lord knows to my surprise
r>chorus:
r> E
The only one who could ever reach me
r> A E
r> Was the son of a preacher man
r> E
r> And the only boy who could ever teach me

r> E B A
r> Yes he was, was, yes he was

r> [repeat intro]

r> [another verse - something about "bein' good isn't always
r>easy"]
Bein' good isn't always easy,
no matter hard I try,
when he started sweettalking to me,
he'd come and tell my everything is allright
he'd kiss it down and everything's allright
Can I get away again tonight ?
r> [repeat chorus]
r>
r>bridge:
r>
r> [A] D
r> Oh yes he was
How will I remember
r> A
r> The look within his eyes
r> Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
r> B7
r> Takin' time to make time
r> Tellin' me that he's all mine
r> E
r> Learnin' from each other's knowin'
Looking to see how uch we've grown
r>coda [repeat to fade]
And the only one who could ever reach me
was the son of a preacher man
The only boy who could ever teach me
Was the son of a preacher man
Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was
>coda [repeat to fade]
>
> A
> The only boy who could ever reach me
> D
> Was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man
[sort of ad-libbed]
r>-- AWR again (anyone wanna polish up the lyrics and submit it?)
Think I just did it ...
