[Eb] [Abm]
[Eb] [Abm] [Eb] Bottles and Bibles
Litter the
[F] floor
[Eb] And all [Ab] night revival
Passed [Bb] out around [Eb] four
Now the preacher's been rekindled
But it's hard not to [G] do
So
[Eb] she ran out the [Ab] screen door
Swore [Eb] they were through
Oh
[F] Lord, keep tears [Abm] and tears down [C] [Ebm] me
Just [F] [Fm] preachers and drinkers
[Eb] It's a hard way to [Ab] go
On the [Eb] straight and narrow
When everybody [Bb] in town
Points paper [Eb] at you
And they ain't [Ab] got the wall
With a [Bb] way to you [Eb] all
They don't [Bb] know you at [Eb] all
[Bb] They think they [Eb] do
He didn't believe her
He just knew she'd come [G] home
But the night's kept [Ab] a-calling
As he [Eb] laid there alone
And he'd call up to heaven
And he'd hope and he'd pray
But
[G] the [Eb] line's [Ab] always busy
Since he [Gm] [Eb] went astray
[Fm] Oh Lord, keep tears [Bb] when you [Ab] answer him
[Bb] Cause preachers [Ab] and [Eb] drinkers
It's a hard way [Ab] to go
On the [Eb] straight and narrow
When everybody [Bb] in town
[Eb] [Bb] Points paper [Eb] at you
And they ain't got [E] the [Ab] wall
With a way to [Eb] you all
They don't know [Bb] you at [Eb] all
[Bb] They think [Eb] they do
Now the bottles and the bibles
[Gm] Broke out [Eb] in a fight
The [Gm] whiskey [Ab]-pumped hearts
He took the [Eb] victory that night
And they found him laying
[Gm] Face [Eb]
down by the stairs
[G] Dressed up [Ab] for a sermon
Nobody [Bb] would [Eb] hear
[F] Oh Lord, keep tears [Bb] when [Ab] you answer him
Cause [Ebm] [F] [Fm] preachers and [Ab] drinkers
[Eb]
It's a hard way [Ab] to go
