By the Devil (I Was Tempted)
guitar chords lyrics
G
I've done a lot of laughing
C
and a little bit of crying
D
I've been a lot of places
G
And made a mess of friends
Got wedded to the whisky
C G
Should've been a good woman
C
If I could re-live my days
G
Changing my ways
D G
I'd not touch' a drop again
[Na na na na na bit - C G D G]
C
By the devil I was tempted
G
And many jugs I've emptied
D
I felt so rejected
G G7
I didn't wanna go astray
C
Half my life has been awasted
G
By the booze I've tasted
D
But the demon I have faced it
G
And sent him on his way
I hope I'll be forgiven
For all my bad livin'
I had to make some changes
'Fore he got me in the end
Now I've got a pretty woman
She gives me good lovin'
I can 't re-live all my days
in a different way
But I won't go astray again
By the devil I was tempted
And many jugs I've emptied
I felt so rejected
I didn't wanna go astray
Half my life has been awasted
By the booze I've tasted
But the demon I have faced it
And sent him on his way
