Son Of A Preacher Man Uke tab by Dusty Springfield

E
Billy Ray was a preacher's son
              A                      E
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
When they'd gather 'round and started talking
B
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
A                   E
  Was the son of a preacher man
     E
The only boy who could ever teach me
A                    E
  Was the son of a preacher man
                B    A
Yes he was, he was,     mmm, yes he was

[1: repeat intro (1X)  2: to bridge]

Verse 2 [one line shorter than verse 1]:

Being good isn't always easy
No matter how hard I'd try
When he started sweet-talkin' to me
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

[repeat chorus]

Bridge:

          D
(Yes, he was)

How well I remember
A
  The look was in his eyes
Stealin' kisses from me on the sly
B
   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 [in A]:

         A
And the only one who could ever reach me
D                    A
  Was the son of a preacher man
     A
The only boy who could ever teach me
D                    A
  Was the son of a preacher man
                E   D7
Yes he was, he was, ooh yes he was

Coda:

      A
(The only one who could ever reach me
               D                      A
                   Was the son of a preacher man)
  He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man)

(The only boy who could ever teach me
                   Was the son of a preacher man)
           A kiss-stealin' son of a preacher man

(The only one who could ever move me
 Was the son of a preacher man)

(The only one who could ever groove me
 Was the son of a preacher man)[fade]
