The Devils Right Hand

E B A F# C#

[Verse 1]
E
About the time that Daddy left to 
fight the big war
                             B
I saw my first pistol in the general
 store

In the general store when I was 
thirteen
Thought it was the finest thing I 
E
ever had seen
E
I asked if I could have one someday 
when I grew up
Mama dropped a dozen eggs, she 
B
really blew up

Really blew up, I didn't understand
                             E
Mama said,"The pistol is the devil's
 right hand"

[Chorus]
A
The devil's right hand
    E       A     E
The devil's right hand
B
Mama said, "The pistol
       E
Is the devil's right hand"

[Verse 2]
E
My very first pistol was a cap and 
ball Colt

Shoot as fast as lightning but she
B
loads a mite slow

Loads a mite slow and soon I found 
out

It can get you into trouble but it
E
can't get you out
   E
So then I went and bought myself a 
Colt 45
                          B
Called a Peacemaker but I never knew
 why

Never knew why, I didn't understand
Mama said, "The pistol is the 
E
devil's right hand"

[Chorus]
A
The devil's right hand
    E       A     E
The devil's right hand
B
Mama said, "The pistol
       E
Is the devil's right hand"
A
The devil's right hand
    E       A     E
The devil's right hand
B
Mama said, "The pistol
       E
Is the devil's right hand"

Well I get into a card game in a 
company town
                           C#
Caught a miner cheating, I shot the 
dog down

Shot the dog down, I watched the man
 fall
                                 F#
Never touched his holster, never had
 a chance to draw
   F#
My trial was in the morning and they
 drug me out of bed
                             C#
Asked me how I pleaded, "Not guilty"
 I said

"Not guilty", I said, you've got the
 wrong man

Nothing touched the trigger but the 
devil's right hand

[Chorus]
    B
The devil's right hand
    F#      B     F#
The devil's right hand
C#
Nothin' touched the trigger
       F#
But the devil's right hand"

    F#
The devil's right hand
    F#      B     F#
The devil's right hand
C#
Mama said, "The pistol
       F#
Is the devil's right hand"
