[Verse 1] E Billy Ray was a preacher's son AE And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they'd gather 'round and started talking B7 That's when Billy would take me walking A-through the back yard we'd go walking Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows to my surprise
[Chorus] E The only one who could ever reach me AE Was the son of a preacher man E The only boy who could ever teach me AE Was the son of a preacher man BA Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was

[Verse 2] E Being good isn't always easy AE No matter how hard I'd try When he started sweet-talkin' to me B7 He'd come and tell me everything is all right He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right Can I get away again tonight
[Chorus] E The only one who could ever reach me AE Was the son of a preacher man E The only boy who could ever teach me AE Was the son of a preacher man BA Yes he was, he was, mmm, yes he was
[Bridge] D (Yes, he was)
How well I remember A The look was in his eyes Stealin' kisses from me on the sly B7 Takin' time to make time Tellin' me that he's all mine E7 Learnin' from each other's knowin' Look at us here, how much we've grown
[Chorus] A And the only one who could ever reach me DA Was the son of a preacher man A The only boy who could ever teach me DA Was the son of a preacher man ED7 Yes he was, he was, ooh yes he was
