Ryan Tedder - Preacher lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was a kid I used to buy and sell gravity I knew how to fly, and I would teach you for a fee Broke every window in my hotel heart When I was only five years old The twelve years scared But I'd hear the same voice echo in my mind It'd say, "Son, you've got an angel." That'd chase the devil out the mind [Hook] When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher He'd talk about God Yea he was something like a teacher He said, "God only helps those who learn to help themselves." He was a million miles from a million dollars But you could never spend his wealth [Verse 2] I took a little faith, and put it in a parking lot I drove to a strange town full of "have" and "have nones" And as I walked through that story-book life I've been looking for an angel who'd chase the devil out the mind Ohhhhh [Hook] Wave. Put your hands up and hands down [Hook]
