Verse 1
(G major) Born in
Amarillo when
Reagan wore the crown
To a couple
Houston lawyers who
had just come to town
Mama (C major) got a job with
Campbell and
Gray
While
(G major) Daddy was a -runnin' for the county
DA
He (D major) went around town in a blue lapel pin
But every (C major) body knows a
Democrat can't win in (G major) the
Bible
Belt (C major) (G major) (E minor)
(G major) On
Sundays we would all go to church
Sing us some hymns and go to
Luby's afterwards
Talk (C major) about the sermon and
talk about the sky
Over (G major) a
Lou
Anne platter and a pecan pie
It was (D major) like church and
Luby's could save us from our sins
Or may (C major) be we were just tryin' to fit into the
(D major) Bib (G major) le
Belt
It's a (C major) real fine place to see the
Lord
Starin' down (G major) at you from a big billboard
A (C major) hundred thousand churches
from east to west
Or you can tun (G major) e in on
Sunday
You televangelist, well some (D major) call it heaven
I call it hell, liv (C major) in' in
West
Texas (G major)
When the time came, went off to
Texas
Tech
But I made back grades
right in fraternity check
So I trans (C major) ferred out to
South
Plains and leveled land
Started (G major) making
A's, so I started up a band
But (D major) nobody ever would come to my shows
I guess (C major) they don't like good
old rock and roll (G major)
It's (D major) a (C major) real fine place to see the
Lord
Staring down (G major) at you from a big billboard
A (C major) hundred thousand churches
from east to west
You can tun (G major) e in on
Sunday
You televangelists, (D major) well,
some call it heaven I call it hell liv (C major) ing in
West
Texas
It says,
Bible
Belt (A minor) (G major) (C major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (C major)
(G major)
(C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (D major)
(G major)
So (E minor) (D major) I'm sit (G major) tin' right here
in the liquor store line
Had to leave at eleven just to make it in time
I (C major) don't understand how
the county's not wet
It would help (G major) with the drought,
it would help with the debt
But (D major) up here change and time moves slow
It's just (C major) one more thing they can't veto
In the
(G major) Bible
Belt
In the
Bible
Belt
In the
Bible
Belt
In the
Bible
Belt
Thank very
