[Capo on fret 1 to play along with Kris]
(Gadd5) I took myself down to the Tally Ho (G7) Tavern
To (C) buy me a bottle of (Gadd5) beer
And (C) I sat me down by a (Gadd5) tender young (Em) maiden
Who's (A7) eyes were as dark as her (D7) hair
And (Gadd5) while I was searchin' from bottle to (G7) bottle
For (C) somethin' un-foolish to (Gadd5) say
That (C) silver tounged devil just (Gadd5) slipped from the (Em) shadows
And (D7) smilin'ly stole her a- (Gadd5) way
I said (G7) hey, little (C) girl don't you know he's the (Gadd5) devil
(C) He's everything that I (Gadd5) ain't
(C) Hidin' intentions of (Gadd5) evil (Em)
(A7) Under the smile of a (D7) saint
All he's (C) good for is gettin' in (Gadd5) trouble (G7)
And (C) shiftin' his share of the (Gadd5) blame (G7)
And (C) some people swear he's my (Gadd5) double (Em)
And (A7) some even say we're the (D7) same
But the (C) silver-tounged devil's got (Gadd5) nothin' to lose (G7)
(C) I'll only live 'til I (Gadd5) die (G7)
We (C) take our own chances and (Gadd5) pay our own (Em-sustain) dues
The (D7) silver tounged devil and (Gadd5) I
(D7) (Gadd5) (E)
Like (A) all the fair maidens who've laid down beside him
She (D) knew in her heart that he'd (A) lied
(D) Nothin' that I could have (A) said could have (Fm) saved her
No (B7) matter how hard that she (E7) tried
'Cause she'll (A) offer her charms to the darkness and danger
Of (D) somethin' that she's never (A) known
And (D) open her arms at the (A) smile of a (Fm) stranger
Who'll (E7) love her and leave her a- (A) lone
(D) And you know, he's the (A) devil
(D) He's everything that I (A) ain't
(D) Hidin' intentions of (A) evil (Fm)
(B7) Under the smile of a (E7) saint
All he's (D) good for is gettin' in (A) trouble
And (D) shiftin' his share of the (A) blame
And (D) some people swear he's my (A) double (Fm)
And (B7) some even say we're the (E7) same
But the (D) silver-tounged devil's got (A) nothin' to lose
(D) I'll only live 'til I (A) die
We (D) take our own chances and (A) pay our own (Fm-sustain) dues
The (E7) silver tounged devil and (A) I
(E7) (A)
