G              D          C
I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds

G              D                        C
Didn't get to sleep that night till the morning came around
[Chorus]
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 day light

Am                  C       D
Just might get some sleep tonight

G            D         C
Ran into the devil, he loaned me twenty bills

G                     D        C
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills
[Chorus]
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 day light

  Am                  C       D
I just might get some sleep tonight

G                       D            C
Well I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there

G                  D                       C
took my twenty dollar bill and he vanished in the air
[Chorus]
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 day light

  Am                  C       D
Just might get some sleep tonight
[Bridge]
        D
       Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

    C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie and she's my heart's delight

D
Second one is prison, baby, the shefiff's on my trail

    Am                            C                D   riff 3 (D -> G)
and if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail

G              D               C
Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee

G                     D                   C
First one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me

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 day light

  Am                  C       D
Just might get some sleep tonight
