1st verse:
E
 Billy Ray was a preacher's son
             A     -                E    -
And when his daddy would visit he'd come along
E
 When they gathered around and started talkin'
B
 That's when Billy would take me walkin'
B
 Out through the back yard we'd go walkin'
B
 Then he'd look into my eyes
B
 Lord knows, to my surprise

The only one who could ever reach me

 Being good isn't always easy
A     -    E    -
 No matter how hard I try

 He'd come'n tell me "Everything is all right"
B
 He'd kiss and tell me "Everything is all right"

 Can I get away again tonight?

 How well I remember

 The look that was in his eyes

 Stealin' kisses from me on the sly

 Learnin' from each other's knowin'
E
 Lookin' to see how much we've grown and
