Tom : G
I lit out from Reno,
I was trailed by twenty hounds
Didn't get to sleep that night
'Till the morning came around.
[Refrão]
D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
D
If I get home before daylight,
Am C D
I just might get some sleep tonight.
[Próxima Parte]
Ran into the devil, babe,
He loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills.
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
I ran down to the levee
But the devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill
And vanished in the air.
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
D
Got two reasons why I cry
D
Away each lonely night,
C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie,
C C C#
And she's my hearts delight.
D
The second one is prison, baby,
D
The sheriff's on my trail,
Am
And if he catches up with me,
C D
I'll spend my life in jail.
Got a wife in Chino, babe,
And one in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child,
But it don't look like me.
[Refrão] (repetir)
