The Devils Part

Dm  Am  Dm  Am
Dm  Am  E

           Dm                     Am
I'm sorry darlin', but I will not let you in
       Dm                              Am
I have seen this before, and I'm still covered in
      Dm                          Am
But I took his tremblin' hands, I led them to my skin
      E                           Am
They twisted around my heart, and let the dark light in
Dm  Am  E  Am
      Dm                               Am
So he came to me one night, to tell me he's not alone
     Dm                     Am
He's carrying a girl, and I left him on his own
    Dm                      Am
She opened up his skin, she lives inside his heart
          E                    Am
And he is scratching, begging, for her to part

      F                     Am
Oh my darlin', you, you are not what I need
          F                  C          Am
I pray to mother, my god I'm down on my knees
Dm              Am
Please my love, please my open heart
E                               Am
Please take forgiveness mother, I play the devils part
Dm  Am  E  Am

      Dm                                   Am
So he shot his words like arrows, but they hit me as we stung
   Dm                             Am
He led me out of town, to tell me I will die alone
Dm                                   Am
'cause in my years of twenty-five, I gave a fool my heart
E                                  Am
Please take forgiveness mother, he played the devils heart

  F                     Am
Oh my darlin', you, you are not what I need
          F                  C          Am
I pray to mother, my god I'm down on my knees
Dm              Am
Please my love, please my open heart
E                               Am
Please take forgiveness mother, I played the devils part

    D                     Am
The devils part
    D                     Am
The devils part
    D                     Am
The devils part
    E*
The devils part
N.C.                      Am
The devils part
  Dm                                  Am
I could say I learnt a lesson, that I won't repeat again
     Dm                    Am
With every passing year, I learn to bury sin
        Dm
But I'm older now, truth be told,
     Am                      E
I'm falling right apart, now spend the last days burning
Am
Paper through my heart

  F                     Am
Oh my darlin', you, you are not what I need
          F                  C          Am
I pray to mother, my god I'm down on my knees
Dm              D              Am
Please my love, please my open heart
E                              *
Please take forgiveness mother,
N.C.
I played the devils part
