Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Gm][G][Gm][G][Gm][G][Gm]
[G][Gm][G]

[Verse 1]
[Gm]The preacher i[G]s there for his children
He will drive the dogs from the wasteland
He remembers things we've forgotten
He will lead us to [Gm]bread and water
And
[G]I, I have sometimes
Burned your hands off a few old times
Weak, weak, bed of empty
Hiding in the water
[Am]I think he is a good man
He seems like a good [G]man
[F]These day[Em]s it's not[E] easy to [C#]be s[A]ure[Am]
[D]I think he is a good man
I hope he is a good [C]man, [F]but [Em]who can tell a good man from a bad man
when a [Am]preacher man comes [G]knocking at your [F]door?[Gm][G]
There is a path in the darkness
There is a stone in the [Gm]forest[G]
There is a [Gm]strength in our weakness
[G]There is a spruce in the [Gm]floodplain
[G]Fire, fire, house on fire
Burn your hands on
the funeral pyr[Gm]e
Leave, leave, [G]fu neral leave
Hang on the altar
[Am]I think he is a good man
It seems like a good [G]man
[F]But [Em]these days it's not [C#m]easy to be s[Am]ure
[D]I think he is a good man,
I hope he is a good [C]man
[F]But [Em]who can tell a good man
from a bad man
When a [Am]creature man comes [G]looking at your [F]door

[Outro 1]
