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

G                                        C
Didn't get to sleep last night 'till the morning came around.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine

   D                             Am                  C       D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

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

  G                            C
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine

   D                             Am                  C       D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

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

   G                              C
He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine

   D                             Am                  C       D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

D
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night,

    C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie, and she's my hearts delight.

    D
The second one is prison, babe, the sheriff's on my trail,

    Am                             C                D
And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail.

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

    G                                      C
The 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                             Am                  C       D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
