G
I lit out from Reno,
C
I was trailed by twenty hounds
G
Didn't get to sleep that night
C
'Till the morning came around.
D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine

D
If I get home before daylight,
Am
C
D
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.
Set out runnin' 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 vanished in the air.
Set out runnin' 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
Got two reasons why I cry
D
Away each lonely night,
C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie,
C
C C#
And she's my hearts delight.
D
The second one is prison, baby,
D
The sheriff's on my trail,
Am
And if he catches up with me,
C
D
I'll spend my life in jail.
Got
And
The
But

a wife in Chino, babe,

one in Cherokee
first one says she's got my child,
it don't look like me.

Set out runnin' 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.
