Devil Came A Calling Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]The Devil came a- calling,
we took a midnight stroll
I [Am]asked him what he wanted, he said,
[Em]'Your immortal soul'.

[Verse 2]
For fifty years I'll spoil you, like the only [Em]man
alive
With [Am]power, wealth,
a mansion on [Em]Fel latio Drive.

[Verse 3]
[Em]The Devil came a- calling,
all smiles and flattery
[Am]In his hands a contract,
exclusively for [Em]me.

[Verse 4]
When the fifty years are over, [Em]I
asked what happens then.
He pre[Am]tended not to hear me,
but he offered me his [Em]pen.
He showed me a [Am]house,

[Verse 5]
it was as big as a star
He said to me, [Em]'Patrick, what [Am]d'you think so far?' The [Em]Devil came a- calling,
no brimstone fire or rain.
In [Am]fact, I found him charming,
articulate, [Em]urbane.

[Verse 6]
The Devil came [Em]a- calling,
charisma all the way.
[Am]Imagine being master of all
that you [Em]sur vey
He showed me his [Am]world,

[Verse 7]
hell,
he threw me the keys,
Duced me to [Em]women,
they were down on [Am]their knees.
The [Em]Devil came a- calling,

[Verse 8]
[Em]
we took a midnight stroll
I [Am]asked him what he wanted, he said,
'Your [Em]immortal soul'.

[Verse 9]
In his hands were [Em]papers,
he told me they were signed.
My [Am]memory is hazy,
I'm sure that I de[Em]clined.

[Verse 10]
The Devil came a- calling, [Em]no
brimstone fire or rain.
In [Am]fact, I found him charming,
articulate, urbane.
[Em]

[Verse 11]
In his hands were papers,
he showed me they were [Am]signed.[Em]
My [Am]memory is hazy,
I thought that [Em]I declined.
My [Am]memory is hazy,
I'm sure that I [Em]declined.

[Verse 12]
The Devil came [Em]a- calling...
The Devil came a- calling...
[Am][Em]
