The Preacher
Keyboard intro
Well I [Bm]threw my[G]self a [D]party
Well, it was [Bm]just the [G]other [D]day
Well my [Bm]wife wasn't [G]there but my [D]old buddies were
'Cause some[Bm]body was [G]goin' aw[D]ay
Well I've [Bm]lived in this [G]town for a [D]lifetime
And I've [Bm]sinned from beg[G]inning to [D]Z
And the [Bm]preacher at [G]our congre[D]gation
He knew [Bm]just how to [G]get into [D]me
Well he'd stand there so high on his pulpit
And I knew when he talked of my soul
But that preacher he died there
With all of my lies
Chorus:
And my [D]sins went [G]with him when they [D]put him in the hole
My [D]sins went [G]with him when they [D]put him in the hole
Well [D]bIess my [G]heart let the [Bm]good times roll
My [D]sins went [G]with him when they [D]put him in the hole
Well he drove a Ford Fiesta
What the hell kinda car is that
Well he'd drive around here tryin' to flush out a queer
Or the man that ran over his cat
But his heart couldn't take all the pressure
Tryin' to find what I already know
And my face has gone pious to cheshire
Chorus
Instrumental
Well the new preacher he is a young man
And he don't speak as much from the book
And my wife doesn't like that about him
But he makes up for that with his looks
So she stares up at him every Sunday
And in her eyes I can see all the lust
But I guess that I can't be complaining
'Cause it was me that has broken our trust
So I hope she lives long or gets lucky
And he passes before she gets old
Then she won't have to worry 'bout nothin'
Chorus 2:
'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in a hole
Her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
Well bless her heart; let fhe good times roll
'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
Well bless our hearts; let the good times roll
'Cause our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
Our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
