"Friend of the Devil" Live [Intro] D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em [Verse 1]
D
I lit out from Reno

      G
I was trailed by twenty hounds

D
Didn't get to sleep that night

         G
Till the morning came around

A
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Em
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine

   A
If I get home before daylight

  G                            A
I just might get some sleep tonight
[Verse 2]
   D
I ran into the Devil, babe

   G
He loaned me twenty bills

  D
I spent the night in Utah

     G
In a cave up in the hills

A
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Em
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine

   A
If I get home before daylight

  Em                          A
I just might get some sleep tonight
[Verse 3]
  D
I ran down to the levee

        G
But the Devil caught me there

   D
He took my twenty dollar bill

       G
And he vanished in the air

A
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Em
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine

   A
If I get home before daylight

  Em                           A
I just might get some sleep tonight
[Bridge]
  A
I got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

    G
The first one's named sweet Anne Marie

    G
and she's my heart's delight

    A
The second one is prison, babe

    A
the sheriff's on my trail

    Em
And if he catches up with me

     G                A
I'll spend my life in jail
[Verse 4]
D
Got a wife in Chino, babe

    G
And one in Cherokee

D
First one says she's got my child

    G
But it don't look like me

A
Set out runnin' but I take my time

  Em
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine

   A
If I get home before daylight

  G                           A
I just might get some sleep tonight
