Intro: Dm F A x4

Dm               F                        A
The devil said, "Sit and have yourself a glass"
Dm                     F                A
He said "I know youʼre angry right now, but the feelinʼ will pass
Dm                     F                           A
So keep your cup tipped up when youʼre feelinʼ down low
             Dm                  F
And when you finally forget your purpose
           A
Youʼll be stumblinʼ on down my side of the road"

G                    Dm
Oh you know it ainʼt good for you
G                Dm
To keep going on like you do
G               Dm                   A
Timeʼs running away and itʼs running fast

Whoa-oh-oh
Dm      F
Said I know
G                       F
I used to walk down the very same road
Dm       F                         A
And if I could Iʼd give you some advice
Dm            F
See, he donʼt care about you
G                     F
All the good, all the bad you do, no
Dm            F                            A
He wants your life, and thatʼs the devilʼs price
                   Dm F A
Yeah, the devilʼs price

Dm                   F                       A
The same devil says "Sit and have yourself a line"
Dm                       F
He says, "We can make it last all day
A
Yeah we can make it last all night
Dm                     F                    A
When you try to go to sleep Iʼll be in your ear
            Dm
Yeah Iʼll be laughinʼ at you
     F
The whole night through
          A
With your paranoid eyes all full of fear"

G                    Dm
Oh you know it ainʼt good for you
G                Dm
To keep going on like you do
G               Dm                   A
Timeʼs running away and itʼs running fast

Whoa-oh-oh
Dm      F
Said I know
G                       F
I used to walk down the very same road
Dm       F                         A
And if I could Iʼd give you some advice
Dm            F
See, he donʼt care about you
G                     F
All the good, all the bad you do, no
Dm            F                            A
He wants your life, and thatʼs the devilʼs price
                   Dm F A
Yeah, the devilʼs price
                   Dm F A
Yeah, the devilʼs price

Dm F A x2

Dm             F                       A
The devil just left, he said he had to go
Dm                F               A
Itʼs funny how it works that way when you just start tellinʼ him no
Dm               F                    A
So just keep on keepinʼ him down that way
             Dm
I said youʼre almost done,
            F                A
You got the devil on the run, and you ainʼt got no price to pay

Dm        F
I said I know
G                       F
I used to walk down the very same road
Dm              F                      A
And I thank you kindly for takinʼ my advice
Dm            F
See, he donʼt care about you
G                     F
All the good, all the bad you do, no
Dm                 F                           A
He canʼt take your life, you ainʼt payinʼ the price
                   Dm F A
Yeah, the devilʼs price
                   Dm F A
Yeah, the devilʼs price

Dm F A x4
