E5 
Well he was the assistant preacher And the Sunday school teacher 

In the church that I grew up in  

She was a looker from atlanta Led the choir, played piano 
       B5 
Had a body that was made for sin 
E5                           
She didn,t care that he was married Cause the torch that she carried 
     A5 
Was hotter then the fires of hell  
E5  
She had plans to suduce him  
        A5                B5 
If she could she would loosen  
                      E5 
A notch in the bible belt 
E5 
So she called him up at home,  When she knew he'd be alone, 

Said preacher I could use advice 

I got troubles with a man,   That I know you'll understand 
              B5 
If you could help me it would sure be nice  
E5 
They met a few minutes after,   In the office of the pastor 
          A5 
And she started telling how she felt 
         E5 
What a chance they were takin' 
           A5 
When they first started breakin' 
     B5                 E5 
The laws of the bible belt 
 
Chorus:  
           A5 
There's a lot of good people  
 
Who are led astray  
      E5 
That believe what the good book said 
           A5 
Well I'll tall ya something brother  
 
When you're dealin' with the devil 
      F#5                    B5 
It's tough to keep a level head 
      E5 
It's hard to imagine How the flames of passion  
     A5 
Can burn till your soul will melt 
            E5 
And it'll spread like a cancer  
     A5 
But you're gonna have to answer 
        B5                  E5 
To the lord and the bible belt

Verse:II 
E5 
Someone said they went to Vegas,  Back home it didn't take us long  

To hear the news of what they did 

Nobody could believe  That he left his wife to grieve 
B5 
Alone with two preschool kids 
E5 
I don't know how there doin' 

But I know that they're screwin' up  
   A5 
A good thing they once had 
      E5 
They better get their heads together 
             A5 
Or they're gonna slap leather 
          B5                  E5 
With the lord and the bible belt 
 
Repeat chorus: 
             E5 
They better get their heads together 
             A5 
Or they're gonna slap leather  
          B5                  E5 
With the lord and the bible belt
