[verse 1]
G     G/F#     Em    D     C          C/B    Am    G
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds
G      G/F#   Em         D              C       C/B  Am    G
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                          D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

[verse 2]
G     G/F#   Em     D        C         C/B    Am   G
Ran into the devil, babe, he loaned me twenty bills
G           G/F#     Em   D    C       C/B    Am   G
I spent the night in Utah in a cave up in the hills.

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

[verse 3]
G          G/F#   Em    D       C     C/B       Am   G
I ran down to the levee but the devil caught me there
G          G/F#   Em     D        C        C/B    Am  G
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                          D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.

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

[verse 4]
G     G/F#    Em     D         C      C/B Am  G
Got a wife in chino, babe, and one in Cherokee
G             G/F#       Em     D          C        C/B       Am G
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                          D
If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight.
