Verse
D#m
There's blood across the bayou
C# D#m
Down in Mississippi
C#
Where they been killin' since the Civil War
D#m
Over money, land, and whiskey
D#m
But don't go ask about it
C# D#m
People don't take kind
G#m
To you diggin' up those skeletons
A#7 D#m
You leave 'em where they lie
C# D#m
D#m
Was it pills or alcohol?
C# D#m
Meth or devil's cane?
C#
Or did he catch a whiff of somethin'
D#m
That would send him to his grave?
D#m
Or did he have a death wish?
C# D#m
Was his heart too weak?
G#m
They found him lyin' face-down
A#7 D#m
Floatin' in the creek
[Chorus]
B C# D#m
Preacher's dead on Slaughterhouse Road
G#m A#7 D#m
Who did him in, nobody knows
G#m A#7 D#m
His body's cold on Slaughterhouse Road
C# D#m
[Verse 2]
D#m
Well some say he was a straight shot
C# D#m
Kept his own nose clean
C#
Some say he was a man of God
D#m
You won't hear that from me
D#m
Well I know he had a Bible church
C# D#m
On Highway 28
G#m
But laying hands and praying loud
A#7 D#m
Don't mean that you is saved
D#m
Oh it says in Revelation
C# D#m
That idolators and liars
G#m
Will come to meet their second death
A#7 D#m
In a lake of burnin' fire
[Chorus]
B C# D#m
Preacher's dead on Slaughterhouse Road
G#m A#7 D#m
Who did him in, nobody knows
G#m A#7 D#m
His body's cold on Slaughterhouse Road
[Interlude]
C# D#m G#m A#7 D#m
[Verse 3]
D#m
Well, we was highschool sweethearts
C# D#m
Married twenty years
C#
Sometimes you don't see right away
C# D#m
What time will soon make clear
D#m
Well, he had a taste for younger girls
C# D#m
Sleepin' around with trash
G#m
I found lipstick on his collared shirt
A#7 D#m
And somethin' in me snapped
D#m
Well they came around to question me
C# D#m
Two good ol' country cops
C#
Then tipped their hats, said "Thank you ma'am
D#m
"So sorry for your loss"
D#m
And it looked just like an accident
C# D#m
Final cause of death
G#m
Not Miller Lite with cyanide
A#7 D#m
Just cardiac arrest
G#m
Not Miller Lite with cyanide
A#7 D#m
Just cardiac arrest
[Chorus]
B C# D#m
Preacher's dead on Slaughterhouse Road
G#m A#7 D#m
Who did him in, nobody knows
G#m A#7 D#m
His body's cold on Slaughterhouse Road
G#m A#7 D#m
Who did him in, God only knows
