Pimps And Preachers Chords by Paul Thorn

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ My dad had a Cadillac, my uncle drove a Ford, one was Satan's angel and one worked for the
Lord.
They had some hard-earned wisdom, they both became my teachers.
I was a young disciple
of pimps and preachers. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ The school of life was open, [Bb] each day I went to class.
[Eb] When I
didn't pay attention, [Bb] they kicked me in the ass.
They were turning out young bitches and
converting non-believers.
[Eb] I was learning from the masters, [Bb] pimps and [Eb] preachers.
One set
me through the darkness, [Bb] one led me to the light.
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught
me how to fight.
[Eb] I guess you could say I am an _ overachiever.
And [Bb] I owe a debt of [F] gratitude
to _ _ [Bb] pimps and _ preachers.
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ They kept me under their wings, but when I passed the test, [Eb] they
gave me a blue-side suit [Bb] and pushed me from the desk.
Now I'm standing on a corner recruiting
hungry seekers.
I'm starting a [Eb] new religion, I [Bb] call it pimps and preachers.
[Eb] One took me
through the darkness, one led me to the light.
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught me how
to fight.
[Eb] I guess you could say I am an overachiever.
_ [Bb] And I owe a debt of [F] gratitude to [Db] pimps [Eb] and _
[Bb] preachers.
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Stand there and do nothing, but if you want to go far, don't try to please
everybody.
Be proud of who you are.
Get out there in the game, don't sit up in the bleachers.
[Eb] That is the philosophy [Bb] of pimps and [Eb] preachers.
One took me through the darkness, [Bb] one led me
to the light.
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught me how to fight.
[Eb] I guess you could
say I am an _ overachiever.
And [Bb] I owe a debt of [F] gratitude to [Bb] pimps and preachers.
