Billy Ray was a preacher's son
	     A                      E
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they'd gather round and started talking
B(sus4)
That's when Billy would take me walking
A-through the back yard we'd go walking
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows to my surprise

      E
  The only one who could ever reach me
  A                E
  Was the son of a preacher man
  The only boy who could ever teach me
  Was the son of a preacher man

	 E       B    A
  Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was

E  w/ cuivres

Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I'd try (ou-ouh)
When he started sweet-talkin' to me
He'd come and tell me everything is all right (wou-ouh)
He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right (wou-ouh)
Can I get away again tonight?

  Refrain

         D
(Yes, he was)
How well I remember
A
The look was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
B
Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all mine
E
Learnin' from each other's knowin'
Look at us here, how much we've grown

  Refrain  (en A)

  (The only one who could ever reach me)
  He was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher man
  (The only boy who could ever teach me)
  A kiss-stealin' son of a preacher man

  (The only one who could ever move me)
  (Was the son of a preacher man)
  (The only one who could ever groove me)
  (Was the son of a preacher man)                          repeat & fade

(Bobbie Gentry: Groooovy)
