_ _ _ _ From the check land circuit to the peppermint lounge, been run off more than once for going underground.
Where I met an old blues man with a walking cane.
He wore a striped suit and used someone else's name.
He [D] said, son, I've seen it all and it's not what you [A] think.
_ _ _ _ He said there's [D] some tough choices to be made.
Then he took a [A] little drink and I heard him say, _ _ I do [D] not play no rock [A] and roll with [D] nothing
but my moon to [A] sell my soul.
[D] The demons are up to me, _ [Bb] rock you [Gbm]
said.
[A] _ _ _ _ Oh, [D] the demons are up to me, [Bb] oh he [A]
said.
Straight down the line.
_ I passed an old church on my way back east.
I heard a gospel choir singing of war and peace.
I was deeply moved.
So I stepped inside.
I just stood in the back where I could easily hide.
[D] A woman in a black robe stood up and pointed me out.
_ _ _ _ _ [D] She said, hallelujah, _ _ hallelujah.
[A] Lord, if she began to sing, this is what she said.
I do not play [D] no [A] rock and roll.
I would [D] not be moved to sell [A] my soul.
[D] The demons are up to me, _ rock [A] you said.
_ _ _ _ Oh, [D] the demons are up to me, _ [Bb] oh [G] he said.
[Gb] _ Straight down [A] the line. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] Now he could croon a tune as good as anyone.
And if he sings a song, then that song's been sung.
Some things got tradition, some sound like good.
And some things you can't change, no matter what.
_ [D]
He said, my friend, I've done it all, _ _
[A] either for love or money.
_ _ [D]
And if I laugh at your jokes, _ oh, [Am] that means his jokes are [A] funny.
And one more thing.
I do not play no rock and roll.
I would not be moved to sell my soul.
The demons are up to me, [Bb] rock [A] you said.
_ _ _ Oh, _ [D]
the demons are up to me, _ [Bb] [A] oh he [D] said.
_ [A] Straight down the [B] line.
