Devil Makes Three
Am    E7    Am     D5    E7

Am    E7    Am     E7    Am   E7   Am 


          Am                           E7
Even the devil was an angel 'fore he tried to rush the throne
            Am                     D5   E7
Lord, they threw him in hell there all alone
Am                        E7
Now he builds a castle out of the sinner's bones
Am             E7                 Am   E7  Am
You'd be angry too, if you could never go home

          E7                       Am
Well now, I ain't no preacher no preacher man's son
E7                                 Am
     I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
    E7                         Am
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
            D5                E7                        Am      E7
Well I say,    the good lord helps those that help themselves

             Am          E7      Am  E7  Am
So help yourselves now

Am                           E7
Old man Nicodemus could not hear his heart bleed
Am                                D5            E7
     He saw that Jesus had some tricks up his sleeve
         Am                   E7
He said "Oh man Jesus I can't do things your way
      Am                E7                   Am      E7   Am
But I see you work for somebody big, so I'm backin' your play."

Am                           E7
     Old man Nicodemus, his pockets they were deep
            Am                      D5             E7
And on the day that they decided to put Jesus to sleep
       Am                              E7
Jesus could not care for money now or any such thing
         Am                 E7         Am     E7     Am
Old Nicodemus paid to have Jesus just buried like a king.

          E7                       Am
Well now, I ain't no preacher no preacher man's son
E7                                 Am
     I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
    E7                         Am
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
            D5                E7                        Am      E7
Well I say,    the good lord helps those that help themselves

             Am          E7      Am  E7  Am
So help yourselves now

     Am                   E7
Our father art in heaven hallowed be thy name
      Am                         D5       E7
Told Noah build a boat, on the driest of days
          Am                                   E7
And everybody in the neighborhood thought old Noah was insane
                  Am       E7            Am   E7   Am
I guess when the waters receded now the truth was plain

          E7                       Am
Well now, I ain't no preacher no preacher man's son
E7                                 Am
     I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
    E7                         Am
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
            D5                E7                        Am      E7
Well I say,    the good lord helps those that help themselves

             Am          E7      Am  E7  Am
So help yourselves now

 Am                                E7
Moses was a great man, parted the waters of the red sea
 Am                             D5                   E7
Down the road to Egypt he made sure the slaves were free
     Am                             E7
Well he could speak to god, so they say, yes indeed
          Am            E7                   Am   E7   Am
Well the noise of his voice woulda made our poor ears bleed

Am                      E7
Moses he had an army I tell ya all his own
Am                             D5            E7
     They stood in circles outside his very home
               Am                              E7
And when the Pharaohs got to killin' they left ol' Moses alone
         Am                 E7           Am E7   Am
But the Romans drove those nails through Jesus' bones


          E7                       Am
Well now, I ain't no preacher no preacher man's son
E7                                 Am
     I done some bad things but I like to have my fun
    E7                         Am
A thousand ways to heaven, a thousand ways to hell
            D5                E7                        Am      E7
Well I say,    the good lord helps those that help themselves

             Am          E7      Am  E7  Am
So help yourselves now


Am    E7    Am     D5    E7
