Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Billy Ray was a [D]preacher's son
And when his [G]daddy would visit
he'd [D]come [G]along[D]
When they gathered around
and started talkin'
That's [A]when Billy would take me walkin'
[D]Out [A]through the back yard
we'd go walkin'
Then he'd look into my eyes
Lord knows, to my surprise
[D]The only one who could
ever reach [G]me
Was the son of a [D]preacher man
[G]The onl[D]y boy who could
ever teach [G]me
Was the son of a [D]preacher man
Yes, he was, he [A]was, [G]ooh, yes,
he [D]was[G][D]
Bein' good isn't always [G]easy
No matter how [D]hard I try
When he started sweet talkin' to me
[A]He'd come'n tell me,
"Everything is all right"
He'd kiss and tell me,
"Everything is all right"
Can I get away again tonight?
The [D]only one who could
ever reach [G]me
Was the son of a [D]preacher man
The only boy who could
ever teach [G]me
Was the son of [D]a preacher man
Yes, he [A]was, [G]he was,
ooh, yes, he was
[C](Yes, he was)
How well I [G]remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on [A]the sly
Takin' time to make time
Tellin' me that he's all [D]mine
Learnin' from each
other's knowin'
Lookin' to see how much
we've grown and
The [G]only one who could
ever reach [C]me
Was the son of [G]a preacher man
The only boy who could
ever teach [C]me
Was the son of a [G]preacher man
Yes, he was, he [D]was,
[C]oh yes, he was
(The only [G]one[C]
who could ever [G]reach me)
He was the sweet [C]talkin' son
of a [G]preacher man
(The only boy who [C]could
[G]ever tea[C]ch me)
Was the son of a [G]preacher man
(The only one who could ever
[C]reach [G]me)
Was the [G]sweet [G]talk
[G]in' [D]son of a preacher man
