I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night 'till the morning came around G » - - / C » - - // (2x) C: Set out running gonna take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight D - - - / Am - - - / D - - - / Am - - - / D - - - / // Ran into the devil and he loaned me twenty bills Spent the night in Utah in cave up in the hills C: Set out running gonna take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight Ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there Took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air C: Set out running gonna take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight B: Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night First ones named Sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight Second one is prison baby, the sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me, you know I'll spend my life in jail D - - - / / C - - - / / D - - - / / Am - - - / C - - - / D - - - / // (Solo on verse changes) B: Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night First ones named Sweet Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight Second one is prison baby, the sheriff's on my trail And if he catches up with me, you know I'll spend my life in jail Got a wife in Chino and one in Cherokee First one said says she's got my child, but it don't look like me C: Set out running gonna take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight I just might get some sleep tonight 1970 Warner Brothers Records:: on their "American Beauty" |
