Dialogue With The Devil

Bruce Cockburn

Continues after the ad
Key:
G A E 1. Standing on a rock, in a river.
G A E Staring at the splintered sun.
G F C You could drowned yourself in
G/B jewels,
D Am7 G A Like a thousand other fools.
E C While you stand there looking
G down at what you won.
G A E 2. Sitting on a mountain of ashes.
G A E Face to face with past regrets.
G F You could roll down to the
C G/B canyon,
D Am7 G A Piss away this incarnation.
E C But remember, that you pay
G for what you get.
E And he says; "Don't you
D E D know, how hard it is,
Continues after the ad
E to hit the
D E D ground, and mean it.
E D And mean it."
G A 3. Walk the jangling streets of the
E city,
G A E Trying to find the buried sun.
G F C You could drowned yourself in
G/B jewels,
D Am7 G A Like a thousand other fools,
E C While you wonder, waiting
G for it to be done.
E And he cries; "Why don't we celebrate, why don't we celebrate,
G Love can make
A you sad, come on, Let's drive
E ourselves mad."
E And he's
D E D E aware, how hard it is, to kiss
D the sun,
E D And mean it,
E D and mean it.
G A E 4. Standing on a rock, in a river.
G A E Staring at the rain, made one.
G F On the surface, flashing
C G/B diamonds,
D Am7 G Rolling down the twilight
A canyon.
E C And we shall kiss the sun, in
G spite of him.
E So why don't we celebrate, why don't we celebrate.... (Repeat and fade) (* Please note, this is only an interpretation for rhythm guitar, the real version features intricate finger-picking that Bruce is so well known for. MP)
