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