FRIEND OF THE DEVIL- Grateful Dead

G/f#

G/f#

I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds

G/f#

Didn't get to sleep that night till the morning came around

CHORUS:

Set out runnin' but I take my time

a friend of the devil is a friend of mine

If I get home before day light

D riff 1 (as

D ->

G)

I just might get some sleep tonight

Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills

I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills ...CHORUS

Ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there

took my twenty dollar bill and he vanished in the air ...CHORUS

BRIDGE:

riff 2 D

Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night

The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie and she's my heart's delight

Second one is prison, baby, the shefiff's on my trail

D riff 3 (

D ->

G)

and if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail

Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee

First one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me
