[Verse 1]
E
  Comely woman, why you treatin' me this way?
E
  Got religion, instead of lovin' now you're praying
E
  You know I know I was everything you need
E
  Traded good times for a reverend's guarantees


[Chorus 1]
          A                                  E
I ain't no preachin' man, don't know what to do
           G              A                 E
I got those slowly sinkin' reformed Baptist blues


[Verse 2]
E
  Now you wake me when I should be sleepin' in
E
  Drag me out to get'n your place of worshipin'
E
  Missed the football now, six weeks in a row
E
  Gets depressing as I tread from door to door


[Chorus 2]
          A                                  E
I ain't no preachin' man, don't know what to do
           G              A                 E
I got those slowly sinkin' reformed Baptist blues


[Bridge]
A                 B
  Absolution is a bummer I have found
A                    B
  Re-baptism's just another way around
A                        B
  Past salvation doesn't interest me at all
A                         B      A    E
  Found the answer at the bottom of a bottle

G  A  E


[Verse 3]
E  N.C.
        Now you curse me every time I tell a lie
E  N.C.
        Tradin’ my gold chains for those starch-back Texan ties
E  N.C.
        Can't beseech it that our marriage is a fraud
E  N.C.
        Can't get screwed around when the other guy is Gord


[Chorus 3]
          A                                  E
I ain't no preachin' man, don't know what to do (hoo!)
           G              A                 E
I got those slowly sinkin' reformed Baptist blues (whoo)


[Outro]
           G              A                 E
I got those slowly sinkin' reformed Baptist blues
               G              A                 E
Oh, I got those slowly sinkin' reformed Baptist blues
       G            A            E
Whoooo-ah, ha-ha-ha ha-ho, ha-ha-ha
