                             Friend of the Devil

                                                         The Grateful Dead

G1 G/F# G/E G/D  C C/B Am G (x4)
    G1    G/F#     G/E
    I lit out from Reno
    G/D   C          C/B    Am     G
    I was trailed by twenty hounds
    Didn't get to sleep that night
    Till the morning came around

              D
            I set out running, but I take my time
              Am
            A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
               D
            If I get home before daylight
            Am                          D
            Just might get some sleep tonight

    I ran into the devil, babe
    He loaned me twenty bills
    Spent that night in Utah
    In a cave up in the hills

            I set out running, but I 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

    I ran down to the levee
    But the devil caught me there
    He took my twenty dollar bill
    And he vanished in the air

            I set out running, but I 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+              D+         D+              D+   add4
                    Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night
                    C
                    First one's named sweet Anne Marie
                      and she's my heart's delight
                    D+            D+            D+              D+  add4
                    Second one is prison, baby, sheriff's on my trail
                    Am                            C                D
                    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

            I set out running, but I 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
                       *Solo*   (verse)

                    Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night
                    First one's named sweet Anne Marie
                      and she's my heart's delight
                    Second one is prison, baby, sheriff's on my trail
                    And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail

    Got a wife in Chino, babe
    And a one in Cherokee
    First one says she's got my child
    But it don't look like me

            I set out running, but I take my time
            A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
            If I get home before daylight
              Am                          D
            I just might get some sleep tonight...
