[Chorus]
D
I let a preacher
G
I let a preacher
D A
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
D
I let a preacher
G
I let a preacher
D A D
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
D
Put away my weapon
G
Put away my whiskey
D A
Put away everything unworthy in His sight
D
Picked up the Bible
G
Shrugged off its rival
D A D
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
D
Well my girlfriend
G
Didn't like the whirlwind
D A
Of his words that quivered in their might
D
He spoke directly
G
Sometimes correctly
D A D
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
[Chorus]
D
I got the stare-down
G
He tore my fair down
D A
He said "sinner, when are you gonna see the light?"
D
Felt adolescent
G
Under fluorescent lights
D A D
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
[Chorus]
D
Got with my cousins
G
Nearly a dozen
D A
Of them big boys just scratchin' for a fight
D
Well we confused it
G
Then we renewed it
D A D
I let a preacher talk to me tonight
[Chorus]
