SON OF A PREACHER MAN
Dusty Springfield
[ E] Billy Ray
was a preacher's son
And when his [ A] daddy
would visit he'd [E] come along
When they'd gather 'round and started talking
[ B7] That's
when Billy would take me walking
Through the back yard we'd go walking
Then he'd look into my eyes; Lord knows to my surprise
The [ E] only
one who could ever reach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
The [ E] only
boy who could ever teach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
Yes he [ B] was, he
was, [A] mmm, yes he was
[ E] Being good
isn't always easy
[ A] No matter how [E] hard I'd try
When he started sweet-talkin' to me
[ B7] He'd come
and tell me everything is all right
He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right
Can I get away again tonight
The [ E] only
one who could ever reach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
The [ E] only
boy who could ever teach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
Yes he [ B] was, he
was, [A] mmm, yes he was
The [ E] only
one who could ever reach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
The [ E] only
boy who could ever teach me
[ A] Was the son of
a [E] preacher man
Yes he [ B] was, he
was, [A] mmm, yes he was
[ D] How well
I remember
[ A] The look
was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
[ B7] Takin'
time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
[ E7] Learnin'
from each other's knowin'
Look at us here, how much we've grown
And the [ A]
only one who could ever reach me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
The [ A] only
boy who could ever teach me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
Yes he [ E] was, he
was, [D7] ooh yes he was
[ A] The only
one who could ever reach me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
The [ A] only
boy who could ever teach me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
The [ A] only
one who could ever move me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
The [ A] only
one who could ever groove me
[ D] Was the son of
a [A] preacher man
Repeat to fade
