   E
   Billy Ray was a preacher's son
                A                      E
   and when his daddy would visit he'd come along
   E
   When they gathered round and started talking
   B
     cousin Billy would take me walking
   
   Through the backyard we'd go walking
   
   Then he'd look into my eyes
   
   Lord knows to my surprise
   
   
   CHORUS:
   -------

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

   VERSE 2: [play like verse 1]
   --------

   Being good isn't always easy,
   No matter how hard I tried,
   When he started sweet talking to me,
   He'd come tell me everything is alright,
   He'd kiss and tell me everything is alright,
   Can I get away again tonight?
   
   
   CHORUS:
   -------

       E
   The only one who could ever reach me
   A                E
     was a son of a preacher man
       E
   The only boy who could ever teach me
   A                E
     was a son of a preacher man
                  B
   Yes he was, he was
   A
     Ooh yes he was
   
   
   BRIDGE:
   -------

           D
   (Yes he was)
   
   How well I remember,
   A
     The look that was in his eyes,
   
   Stealing kisses from me on the sly,
   B
     Taking time to make time,
   
   Telling me that he's all mine,
   E
     Learning from each others knowing,
   
   Looking to see how much we'd grown.
   
   
   CHORUS:

       A
   The only one who could ever reach me
   D                A

       A
   The only boy who could ever teach me

     was a son of a preacher man
                  E
