[Am] [G]
[C] [Am]
[G] I let out from Reno I [C] was [B] trailed by [Am] 20 [Em] hounds
[G] Didn't get to sleep that [C] night till the morning [Am] came [D] around
Said I'd rather take my time a [A] friend of the devil is a friend of [D] mine
I get home before daylight [Am] just might get some [D] sleep tonight
Ran
[G] into the [D] devil, [C] baby, loaned me [Am] plenty bills
[G] Spent the night in Utah [Am] in a cave up in the hills
[D] Said I'd rather take my [A] time a friend of the devil is a friend [D] of mine
I get home before daylight [Am] just might get some sleep [D] tonight
Ran
[G] down to the levee [C] but the devil [Am] caught me [C] there
[G] He took my $20 [C] bill and it vanished in the air
[D] Said I'd rather take my time [A] a friend of the devil is a friend [D] of mine
I get home before [Am] daylight just might get some sleep [D] tonight
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely [C] night
The first one's named Sweet Ann Marie and she's my heart's delight
[D] Second one is prison, baby, the sheriff's on my trail
[Am] And every catch is up to me, [C] I'll spend [D] my life in jail
Got [G] a wife in jail, [C] baby, and a one in Cherokee
[G] First one say she got my [Am] child but it don't look like me
[D] Said I'd rather take my [Am] time a friend of the devil is a friend of [D] mine
I get home before daylight [Am] just might get some sleep [D]
