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  

Chorus: 
	D  
	Set out running but I'll take my time  
	    Am  
	A friend of the devil is a friend of mine  
	   D	                            	                   
	If I get home before daylight, 
                Am                          C         D 
                I just might get some sleep tonight 
  
G                                C		       
I ran into the devil babe and he loaned me twenty bills 
G	                   C 
Spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills 
  
  
Repeat Chorus:  


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


Repeat Chorus: 


Bridge: 

D		      
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night  
      C 
The First one's named sweet Anne Marie, and she's my heart's delight  
D			 
The Second one is prison bait and the sheriff is on my trial  
      Am                                    C                     D  
And if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in jail  


G                                       C 
I've got a wife in Chino Babe and one in Cherokee  
G			C	     
First one says she got my child but it don't look like me
