[D] The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind because he was way behind and he was willing to make a deal.
When he came across this young man [A] sewing on a fiddle and playing it hot, and the devil
jumped up on a hickory stump and said, boy, let me tell you what, I [Dm] guess you didn't know
it but I am a fiddle player too, and if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the [B] devil his due.
I bet [A] a fiddle of gold against your soul because I think I'm better than [C] you.
The [D] boy said, my name's Johnny and it might be a sin, but I'll take your bet and you're
gonna regret it because [Bb] I'm the best there's ever been.
[Dm] Johnny, you're awesome, up your [C] bow and play your fiddle hard, [Gm] because hell's broke loose
in Georgia [Dm] and the devil deals the cards.
And if you win, you'll get this [D] shiny fiddle [Gm] made of gold, [A] but if you lose, the devil gets your soul.

_ [G] _ [A] _ _ [D] The devil opened up his case and he said, I'll start this show, and fire flew from his
fingertips as he rosined up his bow, and he pulled the bow across the strings and it made
an evil hiss, and then a band of demons joined in and it sounded [Am] something like this. _ _ _ _

_ When the devil finished, Johnny said, well, you're pretty good, old son, but sit down
in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done.
Fire on the mountain, run boys, run. _ _
[C] The devil's in the house of the rising sun. _ _
[D] Chicken in the bread pan, picking out dough. _ _
[C] Granny let your dog bite, no child no.

_ _ _ The devil bowed [D] his head because he knew that he'd been beat, and he laid that golden fiddle
on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said, devil, just come on back if you ever want to try again.
I done told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best there's ever been.
He played fire on the mountain, run boys, run. _
