3/4 Time [Strum] {D D UD} D G D A D
D                      G
It was the time of the preacher

               D
When the story began

                   A
Of the choice of a lady

                  D  G  D
And the love of a man

D                        G
And how he loved her so dearly

                   D
He went out of his mind

                      A
When she left him for someone

             D  G  D
She'd left behind

D               G
He cried like a baby

                        D
He screamed her name at Night                     

                   A
And he saddled his pony

                  D  G  D
And he went for a ride

D                      G
It was the time of the preacher

                 D
In the year of '01

                     A
Now the preaching is over

                  D  G  D
And the lesson's begun

D                        G
But he could not forgive her

                       D
Though he tried and he tried

                     A
And the halls of his memory

                D  G  D
Still echo her lies

D                       G
It was the time of the preacher

                 D
In the year of '01

                  A
Now the lesson is over

                  D  G  D
And the killing's begun

D                      G
It was the time of the preacher

                 D
In the year of '01

                        A
When you think it's all over

            D  G D
It's only begun
