Heaven's Almost As Big As Texas
Recorded by Johnny Paycheck
Written by Robert Lee Floyd

G C G
Well he walked into the bar room ragged pants and an overcoat
G7
When at first I saw him I thought he was a joke
C G
When he started preaching I almost dropped my beer
C D7 G
I thought John The Baptist had walked in here

C G
In his hand he held a bible and he had scary look
G7
He could quote the scriptures without opening the book
C G
He wasn't to good looking he wouldn't drive the ladies wild
C D7 G
But I'll have to say he damn sure had his style

C G
He said heaven's almost big as Texas
G7
Angels sing like Charley Pride
C G A7
And I'll bet you'll say Jesus looks a lot like Waylon hoss
C D7 G
And when he plays there ain't no place to hide

C G
Well he preached about ten minutes then he gave the alter call
G7
Eighty old drunks and four barmaids have their backs to the wall
C G
I held on to my barstool so hard my hands turned white
C D7 G
He looked like he knew where I was that night

Repeat #3

C G
He went out the back door and vanished into the night
G7
It took a quart of Jim Bean to get me over the fright
C G
I don't know where he was going and I didn't catch his name
C D7 G
But if I go to hell he won't be to blame

Repeat #3 Cause he said...

C D7 G
Yeah and when he plays there ain't no place to hide.
