****************** TO BEAT THE DEVIL ******************
written and performed by Kris Kristofferson.
Verse 1:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
It was winter time in Nashville,down on music city row[/tab]
[tab] D C/G
And i was lookin' for a place to get myself out of the cold[/tab]
[tab] G Em C/G
To warm the frozen feelin' that was eatin' at my soul[/tab]
[tab] D
And keep the chilly wind off my guitar[/tab]
Verse 2:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
My thirsty wanted whisky,my hungry needed beans[/tab]
[tab] D
But it'd been of month of paydays since i've heard that eagle scream[/tab]
[tab] C/G G Em C/G
So with my stomach full of empty and my pockets full of dreams[/tab]
[tab] D
I left my pride and stepped inside a bar[/tab]
Bridge:(spoken)
[tab] Em C/G
Actually i guess you'd could call it a Tavern...[/tab]
[tab] D
Cigarette smoke to the ceiling and sawdust on the floor[/tab]
[tab] G
Friendly shadows[/tab]
Verse 3:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
I saw that there was just one old man sittin' at the bar[/tab]
[tab] D C/G
And in the mirror i could see him checkin' me and my guitar[/tab]
[tab] G Em C/G
He turned,and said "Come up here boy,and show us what you are"[/tab]
[tab] D
I said "I'm dry"-and he brought me a beer[/tab]
Verse 1-bis:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
He nodded at my guitar and said "It's a tough life,ain't it"[/tab]
[tab] D C/G
I just looked at him,and he said "You ain't makin' any money,are you?"[/tab]
[tab] G Em C/G
I said "You've been readin' my mail".He just smiled and said "Let me see your guitar"[/tab]
[tab] C/G G
I've got something you want to hear.Then he laid it on me[/tab]
Verse sang 1:
[tab] G C/G
If you waste your time of talkin' to the people who don't listen[/tab]
[tab] G D
To the things that you are sayin',who do you think's gonna hear[/tab]
[tab] G C/G
And if you should die explaining how the things that they complain about[/tab]
[tab] G D G
Are things they could be changin' who do you think's gonna care[/tab]
[tab] D C/G G
There were other lonely singers in a world turned deaf and blind[/tab]
[tab] D
Who were crucified for what they tried to show[/tab]
[tab] G C/G G
And their voice's have been scattered by the swirling winds of time[/tab]
[tab] D G
Cause the truth remains that no one wants to know[/tab]
Verse 4:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
Well,the old man was a stranger,but i'd heard his song before[/tab]
[tab] D C/G
Back when failure had me locked out on the wrong side of the door[/tab]
[tab] G Em C/G
When no one stood behind me but my shadow on the floor[/tab]
[tab] D
And lonesome was more than a state of mind[/tab]
Verse 2-bis:(spoken)
[tab] G C/G G
You see,the devil haunts a hungry man,and if you don't wanna join him[/tab]
[tab] D C/G
You got to beat him[/tab]
[tab] G Em C/G
I ain't sayin' i beat the devil but i drank his beer for nothing[/tab]
[tab] G
Then i stole his song[/tab]
Verse sang 2:
[tab] G C/G
And you still can hear me singin' to the people who don't listen[/tab]
[tab] G D
To the things that i am sayin',prayin' someones gonna hear[/tab]
[tab] G C/G
And i guess i'll die explainig how the things that they complain about[/tab]
[tab] G D G
Are things they could be changin',hopin' someones gonna care[/tab]
[tab] D C/G G
I was born a lonely singer,and i'm bound to die the same[/tab]
[tab] D
But i've got to feed the hunger in my soul[/tab]
[tab] G C/G G
And if i never have a nickle i won't ever die ashamed[/tab]
[tab] D G
Cause i don't believe that no one wants to know[/tab]
Thanks to Jan Ekeland for the lyrics.
