Preachers Daughter
Composição de (Connie Harrington, Margaret Durante)
Capo 1 Am Pink blossoms on the Mimosa trees C Cadas dance, singing soft and sweet G Sweat on his neck in the summer heat Am Kissin' the preacher's daughter Am Headlights flashing in their eyes C The shadow of a face they recognized G A single shot split the night Am Footsteps in muddy water G F And the sun came up like the day before Am And her sheets hadn't been turned down G F And the boy turned up downstream on the rocks Am Two miles outside of town G F She was leavin' church in a white sundress Am D Last time anybody saw her C D Am Oh, what's become of the preacher's daughter Am One-eyed woman with her tarot cards C Said she ain't comin' back but she ain't gone far G The devil's a liar and he drives a car Am Somewhere in Catahoula County G F Then the sun came up like the day before Am And her sheets hadn't been turned down G F And the search dogs barked on the day they laid Am Her first love in the ground G F The preacher's knees buckled in the heat Am D So the deacon took over C D Am And said "let us pray for the preacher's daughter" Am Blue lights flashin' on the riverbank C They held their breath as they dragged the chains G Hearts all sank when her beautiful face Am Came up out of the water Am Through her tangled hair they could see C She was missing one earring G Found the other in the back seat of the car Am Of the deacon that couldn't have her G F And the sun came up like the day before Am And her sheets hadn't been turned down G F When they slapped the cuffs on the deacon's wrists Am You could hear it all over town G F And the headlines read "Justice At Last Am D Up From The Muddy Water... C D Am The Resurrection of the Preacher's Daughter"
