Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]Bottles and bibles
Litter the floor
An all night re[G]vival
He passed out [D]around four

[Verse 2]
[D]
Now the preacher's been drinkin'
But it's hard not to do
Since she ran out [G]the screen door
And swore they [D]were through

[Verse 3]
[D]
Oh [Em]Lord, if you care
Send [G]a spirit down here
'Cause the [Em]preacher's
been drinkin' [D]again

[Verse 4]
[D]
But it's a hard way to [G]go
On the straight [D]and narrow
When every[A]body in [D]town[A]
Points a finger at [D]you
But they ain't had to [G]walk
With the weight that [D]you've hauled
They don't know [A]you at [D]all[A]
But they think that they do
[D]

[Verse 5]
He didn't believe her
He just knew she'd come home
But the nights kept [G]a crawlin'
As he laid there [D]alone

[Verse 6]
[D]
And he'd call up to heaven
And he'd hope and he'd pray
But the line's [G]always busy
Since he went [A]astray
[D]

[Verse 7]
Oh [Em]Lord, if you care
Won't you an[G]swer his prayers
'Cause [A]the [F#m]preach[Em]er's
been [D]drinkin' again

[Verse 8]
[D]
But it's a hard way to [G]go
On [D]the straight and narrow
When everybody in [A]town[D][A]
Points a finger at [D]you
But they ain't had [G]to walk
With the weight that you've [D]hauled
They don't know [A]you at [D]all[A]

[Interlude 1]
But they think that they do
[D][G]
[A][D][A][D][A][D]

[Verse 9]
Now the [D]bottles and bibles
Broke out in a fight
The whiskey fought [G]hard, son
And took the victory that [D]night
And they found him a layin'
Face down by the stairs
Dressed up for a ser[G]mon
Nobody [D]would hear

[Verse 10]
[D]
Oh [Em]Lord, if you care
Send your an[G]gels down here
'Cause the [Em]preacher's
been [G]drinkin' [D]again

[Verse 11]
[D]
But it's a hard way to [G]go
On the straight [D]and narrow
When every[A]body [Em]in to[A]wn[D][A]
Points a finger at [D]you
But they ain't had to [G]walk
With the weight [D]that you've hauled
They don't know [F#m]you at[A] al[D]l[A]

[Outro 1]
But they think that they do
[D]
