Intro: G Am C D 

verse 1 
           G 
I'm either all in or all out 
           Bm 
I'm in the wooden pew Sunday party crowd 
   Em 
If no one else will drink it then you know I will 
    C 
And wake up in the morning with some Baptist guilt 

verse 2 
      G 
Every tattoo's got a story to tell 
Bm 
Mama said she's prayin' hard to keep me outta hell 
    Em 
But whiskey tastes better when you chase it with a beer 
    C 
But I ain't telling nothing new to nobody here 

                        G 
If I'm preachin' to the choir 
                          Am 
Raise your hands a little higher 
       C                                    D 
If you wanna sing along to a Saturday night revival song 
                                G 
Let me see you sparking up your lighters 
                            Am 
Pour a little payday on the fire 
            C 
If you're a forty drinking, forty working, living the dream 
            D 
Then you're just like me 
                         G     Am C D 
And I'm preachin' to the choir 

verse 3 
  G 
I ain't rich but I'm grateful 
Bm 
Every time I'm driving with a tank full 
Em 
"Simple Man" coming through the dashboard speakers 
      C 
I'm a southern rock sinner, believer 

                        G 
If I'm preachin' to the choir

If you wanna sing along to a Saturday night revival song

Let me see you sparking up your lighters 
                            Am 
Pour a little payday on the fire 
            C 
If you're a forty drinking, forty working, living the dream 
            D 
Then you're just like me 
                         Em    Am D 
And I'm preachin' to the choir 

Bridge 
             C 
Nothing like bourbon and the blues 
G 
Smoke ring hallelu's 
D 
Breaking our backs, bending the rules 
Em 
Southern dry, deep-fried, hearts of gold 
          C 
Hell, but you already know (you already know) 
C 
That's right! 

                        G 
If I'm preachin' to the choir 
                          Am 
Raise your hands a little higher 
       C                                    D 
If you wanna sing along to a Saturday night revival song 
                                G 
Let me see you sparking up your lighters 
                            Am 
Pour a little payday on the fire 
            C 
If you're a forty drinking, forty working, living the dream 
            D 
Then you're just like me 
                         G 
And I'm preachin' to the choir 

Outro 
Am                         C 
Yeah, I'm preachin' to the choir 
G 
I'm either all in or all out 
Am                         C     D 
Cause I'm preachin' to the choir 
              G 
That's right!
