Lee Ann Womack - The Preacher Won't Have To Lie






INTRO: D  A  C  G  D  A  C

  D                    A
I used to believe what money could bring
    C                        G
Was worth more than anything else
    D                     A
But all that changed when I had a dream
      C                    G
And I got a good look at myself

  D                           A
I stood face to face with the ghost of my past
        C                  G
And the spirit what was to come
    D                       A
And they made it clear that one day I'd have
   C                     G     ~ ~ Em
To answer for what I had done
                     A   D A
And I saw what I'd become


CHORUS:
    D           A         C           G
The choices you make, the chances you take
        D          A           G
They'll follow you all of your life
Em7      D         A        G          Em
I'm just trying to live, so when I die
    C              G           D  A  C  G  D  A  C   D
The preacher won't have to lie___


                  A
I ain't no prophet and I ain't no saint
      C                        G      D
And I ain't made no great sacrifice
                      A
I just keep trying to carry my weight
       C                   G      ~ ~ Em
I keep trying to do what is right
                              A   D A
And it's hard to do right sometimes


CHORUS:
        D           A         C           G
But the choices you make, the chances you take
        D          A           G
They'll follow you all of your life
Em7      D         A        G          Em
I'm just trying to live, so when I die
    C              G           D    C    D    C    A D A
The preacher won't have to lie___


CHORUS:
    D           A         C           G
The choices you make, the chances you take
        D          A          G    D G
They'll follow you all of your life
Em7      D         A        G          Em
I'm just trying to live, so when I die
    C              G           D
The preacher won't have to lie___
    C                  G
Oh, the preacher won't have to lie
