Intro: C  

                        
He's a motorcycle preacher 

He's a seeker and a teacher 
                                            G 
And he says the faithful shall not want for anything 

When the good lord come to take us 

Where the big sky meets the Pecos 
                                      C 
And the flowers bloom and grow in everlasting spring 



        F 
And he's busting loose and breaking even 

Glory-bound and true-believing 
                                      G 
Riding down the edge of a switchblade knife 
       C          F          C 
And he speaks the truth that frees us 
                F       C 
And he moves on when he pleases 
                 F        Am          G                    C 
And he wears the cross of Jesus as he wanders through this life 



She's a waitress and a mother 

She's the keeper of her brother 
                                            G 
She's a patient force of nature living in a double-wide 

And she used to be a dancer 

Now she says she knows the answer 
                                                C 
'Cause she loves the lord and she keeps the covenant inside 


 
         F 
And she's busting loose and breaking even 

Glory-bound and true-believing 
                                       G 
Dancing down the edge of a switchblade knife 
        C          F          C 
And she speaks the truth that frees us 
                    F        C 
'Cause she knows us when she sees us 
                  F        Am           G                    C 
And she wears the cross of Jesus as she wanders through this life
