It's [Dm] been ten long years since the devil laid his fiddle at Johnny's feet, and it burned
inside his mind the way he suffered that defeat.
In the darkest pits of hell, the devil hatched an evil plan to [D] tempt the fiddle player, for
he's just a mortal man.
The sin of pride, the devil cried.
What will do you in?
I thought we had this settled.
I'm the best [B] that's ever been.
[Dm] Johnny, did you ever [C] know the devil?
The time keeps marching on, [Gm] the coldest hour is the one [D] that comes just before the dawn.
[Dm] The devil's back in Georgia, [Gm] will you stand up to the test, [A] or will you let the devil
be the best? _

[D] Truth is, I haven't played much since the baby came in June, [Dm] but give me half a minute
and I'll get this fiddle back in June. _ _ _ _ _ _
The devil grabbed the golden fiddle out of Johnny's hand and said, blow out the fiddle
player underground and I'll walk [Am] home.

Y'all better just be turning back if you want this boy to win, cause practice is the only
cure for [Dm] the ridiculous he's had.
Now devil, it would be a sin for you to get my vote, so you go on back to [A] hell to the
woodshed I will go.
