The Devil Is My Running Mate

Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
Em                   Am        Em
And this here is his favourite state
Am
Sorry you folks had to wait.
Em                 Am      Em
He always likes to show up late

Em              Am       Em
No that ain't a rainbow, son
Em             Am     Em
Streetlamps on petroleum
Am
Let's pull in here and get us some
Em               Am      Em
Supplies are running out now

Em                  Am      Em
It ain't the reason for the war
Em                      Am      Em
That's meanness boy and nothing more
Am
They tried to do this all before
Em             Am      Em
But daddy wouldn't let them

Chorus:

D         Am      C             
Sometimes I don't know what I 
    Em
got into
D         Am      C              
Sometimes I can't stand to read 
  Em
my name

D         Am    C           
Sometimes I can only hear their 
       Em
voices
D       Am      C            Em
Casting me back from where I came

Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
Em               Am        Em
Confusion is his favourite state
Am
Surely you folks can relate
Em                    Am      Em
I know we've gathered here to hate

Em                Am     Em
It doesn't matter who we blame
Em                 Am     Em
As long as you all hear a name
Am
All them bastards look the same
Em          Am    Em
Everyone is guilty

Em        Am    Em
Everybody look away
Em         Am    Em
Look away, look away
Am
It doesn't matter what I say
Em             Am        Em
It's what I do that's shifty


Chorus:

D         Am      C             
Sometimes I don't know what we 
     Em
got into
D         Am      C              
Sometimes I don't think I know a 
Em
thing
D         Am      C             
Sometimes I can't even see the 
     Em
trees now
D       Am      C       Em
For the flames, for the flames


Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
Em                   Am        Em
And this here is his favourite state
Am
There ain't no other candidate
Em                 Am Em
It wouldn't matter anyway


Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
Em              Am      Em
The devil is my running mate
