[Verse 1]
         G           C       F   
He ain't made out of iron or made
        C
 out of steel
         G          C           F
He ain't no work of art, but he 
               C
sure as hell is real
   G           C        F         
He ain't got a pedestal up on the 
C
hill
         G
He's the Devil of the North and he 
don't stand still

[Verse 2]
             G              C     
Well, he was there when the 
   F              C
underdog got to win the race
       G              C           
He was there when the Rent 
   F             C
Collector landed on his face
       G              C      
He was there when the Landlord 
  F           C
didn't call time
    G                             
The Devil put the ball across the 
C          G
Sunderland line


[Chorus]
C                         Em
Shout it from the pulpit, bang it on
 a drum
D                        C       
Call for your momma, but she 
        G
ain't gonna come
C                  Em
No use hiding when he rides forth
Continues after the ad
       D
You're gonna have to level with the 
Devil of the North

[Verse 3]
             G          C         
He makes the weeds grow tall in 
  F       C
the factory yard
            G           C         
He puts the coal on the beaches 
       F           C
when the living gets hard
    G          C              
You touch your hat and give the 
  F         C
Devil his due
            G                      
'Cause he's looking out for me and 
     C               G
he's looking out for you


[Chorus]
C                         Em
Shout it from the pulpit, bang it on
 a drum
D                        C       
Call for your momma, but she 
        G
ain't gonna come
C                  Em
No use hiding when he rides forth

You're gonna have to level with the

[Verse 4]
         G             C          
When the mist's on the river and 
   F         C
the feeling's fine
          G         C              
He's in a snack bar sitting with a 
F         C
friend of mine
         G           C            
When the shutters go down and the 
F           C
lights come on
          G              C        
You'll be waiting on the corner, 
        F       C
but he's already gone

[Verse 5]
G        C      F        C
Some say wrong, some say right
       G          C           F  
It's a little bit black and a 
        C
little bit white
         G            C           
From the banks of the Tyne to the 
F             C
shores of the Forth
       G
We've all got a little of the Devil 
of the North


Chorus:
C                         Em
Shout it from the pulpit, bang it on
 a drum
D                        C       
Call for your momma, but she 
        G
ain't gonna come
C                  Em
No use hiding when we ride forth
       D
You're gonna have to level with the 
Devil of the North
C                  Em
No use hiding when we ride forth
       D
You're gonna have to level with the 
Devil of the North
