Tom : D
Intro: D
D
This world can take you by the hand
G
And tempt the soul of any man
D
But you can choose your path
A
There's two roads you can take
D
One way is right and one is wrong
G
The flesh is weak, but love is strong
D A D
And she's all I see between the devil and me
Chorus:
D
The gates of hell swing open wide
G
Invitin' me to step inside
D
I'll be your friend, he calls again
A
I know it's him
D
The flames are spreadin' everywhere
G
But through the smoke I see her there
D A D
She's all I see between the devil and me
D
I hold her in my arms tonight
G
So safe and warm I close my eyes
D
And a cool breeze blows
A
Across our bodies in the dark
D
Outside her reach is my concern
G
Somewhere I know a fire burns
D A D
And she's all I see between the devil and me
D
The gates of hell swing open wide
G
Invitin' me to step inside
D A D
She's all I see between the devil and me
