Work Of The Devil Chords by Bob Wayne

[Am] I woke up this morning in a ditch again.
I swear that woman's the devil's hen.
[F] I went back home to get my stuff.
What I came to find was proof [D] enough.
[C] I seen her lyin' with the boy next door.
I always knew she was a two-bit whore.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ I [G] still loved her though. _ _ _ _
[Am] So I grabbed my shovel and some stuff from the back,
and I went outside to that old spruce [F] shack.
I grabbed my rifle and some gasoline. _
_ I never thought I'd get [D] that mean.
[C] If she'd only listened to what I said,
there'd be no one missin' and no one [G] dead. _ _ _ _ _ _
And I mean that.
_ _ [Am] My heart is pounding, my fists are tight.
Full moon's shinin' on the dead of the night.
[F] I tried to remember somethin' Jesus said,
but the words of the devil rang through [C] instead.
Said, burn that woman, dig a hole for the crown.
My head is spinnin' like a [G] merry-go-round.
It can't stop me.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [A] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] So I done just as the devil [E] said.
[Am] I done it all without regret.
[F] _ I knew I should be [C] feelin' bad.
I tell you flat out, she made me mad.
[C] I still got her name tattooed across my calf.
And I think about her while lookin' back,
and I [G] think, _ _ _ _ _ fuck that bitch. _ _ _ _ _
[Am] Now I listen to the words the good Lord says
on church on Sunday with my new girlfriend.
[F] _ _ [F] Yeah, she don't know about my past, you see.
I don't tell, and she don't ask.
[C] Well, somehow I've come to _ understand
the good Lord has a master [F#] plan.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ And God damn it, I believe in it.
_ _ [Am] My heart is pounding, my fists are tight.
Full moon's shinin' on the dead of the night.
[F] I tried to remember somethin' Jesus said,
but the words of the devil rang through instead.
[A] Said, burn that woman, dig a hole for the crown.
My head is spinnin' like a merry-go-round.
[G] It can't stop me.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ Well, that's how it went down
_ _ _ _ on [F] that cold October night. _ _
_ _ You know, you can't always judge a person
on how [C] they look on the outside. _ _ _ _
Everybody's got a story,
_ _ _ _ [F] some [G] _ that could make you [G] weep.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] _ _
