Preacher  OneRepublic

Hi! This is my first tab ever, so please don't be mad when it's wrong. Personally I
think it's quite accurate. You should be able to figure out the strumming pattern yourself,
just listen closely to the song.
Thank you
CAPO 5th fret
Verse 1:
[C]When I was a [G]kid
I used to [D]buy and sell[E#m] gravity
[C]I knew how to [G]fly
And I could [D]teach you [E#m]for a fee
[C]Break every [G]window
In my [D]hotel [E#m]heart
[C]I was only [G]5 years old but [D]12 years[E#m] scarred
[C]And I'd hear the [G]same voice
[D]Echo in my [E#m]mind
[C]Said 'son you got an [G]angel,
To chase the [D]devil at the [E#m]light
Chorus:
[C]When I was a [G]kid
My grand[D]father was a [E#m]preacher
[C]He'd talk about [G]God
Yeah he was [D]something like a [E#m]teacher
[C]He said God only [G]helps those
Who [D]learn to [E#m]help themselves
[C]He was a million miles from a [G]million dollars
But [D]you could never [E#m]spend his wealth
Verse 2:
[C]I took a [G]little faith
And [D]put it in a [E#m]parking lot
[C]I drove to a [G]strange town
Full of [D]have and [E#m]have nots
[C]And as I [G]walked through that [D]storybook [E#m]life
C G D E#m (let it ring)
I was looking for an angel to chase the devil at the light
Oh! oh! oh!
Chorus:
[C]When I was a [G]kid
My grand[D]father was a [E#m]preacher
[C]He'd talk about [G]love
Yeah he was [D]something like a [E#m]teacher
[C]He said God only [G]helps those
