G                                      C
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds
G                                                        C
Didn't get to sleep last night 'till the morning came around.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
     Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
    D                                            Am                           C        D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

G                                           C
Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills
   G                                          C
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
     Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
    D                                            Am                            C        D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

   G                                              C
I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
      G                                               C
He took my twenty dollar bill and vanished in the air.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
     Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
    D                                            Am                           C        D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

D
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night,
        C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie, and she's my hearts delight.
        D
The second one is prison, babe, the sheriff's on my trail,
        Am                                         C                       D
And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail.

G                                               C
Got a wife in Chino, babe, and one in Cherokee
        G                                                        C
The first one says she's got my child, but it don't look like me.

D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
    Am
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
    D                                            Am                           C        D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
