The Devil And Me

CAPO I


INTRO:  D  G  D  G

D                     A           
I'm not the kind that gets around,
 D                            A
 just another face in this little 
town
   G                               
An everyday man trying to live life
   A
 right
D                       A        
You wouldn't know it to look at 
   D                   A
me, I live in silent misery
G                   A
Or I lead a double life
G                             A  
I've battled with the bottle all 
           D
alone for years
G                               A
I've lied a thousand lies, and cried
 a million tears

CHORUS 1:
G                               A
I'm too tired to fight it, and 
              D
too ashamed to pray
   A                               
I know the Lord must be bored with 
      D
the promises I've made
      G                     
So I sit here with my secret 
          D
thinking no one else can see
              G                  
And I'll just keep it between the 
  A         D
devil and me


Monday morning here I am hiding 
bottles in a garbage can
I take out the trash and pray no one
 sees
I keep my family in the dark 'cause 
Lord knows it'd break their hearts
To see the rock be so weak
I've had a good old Baptist raising,
 so I've got no good excuse
I wish that I was stronger but 
here's the honest truth

CHORUS 1


BRIDGE:
     G                      A  
I'm hoping for a miracle, I know 
              D
that I can change
G                        A
No I'm not givin' up, I know 
there'll come a day, when


CHORUS 2:

I'm not too tired to fight it, or 
too ashamed to pray
And I know the Lord won't be bored 
with the promises I've made
I won't live here with my secret 
where no one else can see
No I won't keep it between the devil
 and me
No I won't keep it between the devil
 and me
