Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][D][G][D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Screamin' in a [D]mic,
playing [Em]a Strat through a Vox AC[G]- 30[D]
Gives a troublesome [A]back and
a ringin' in your [G]ears
My last band [D]covered the Clash,
the [Em]Kinks and the Replace[G]ments
[D]Seems my soul is [Em]as mis-
spent [A]as my [G]years
Now I got [D]a Princeton reverb, it's
in an [Em]old Anvil [G]case
[D]It's in the back of a [A]Ford [G]Econoline
It's a six hour drive to Aus
[D]tin [Em]and the Continental [G]Club
[D]I got to change the[A] string
s on my [G]ES- [D]335
Tell the devil that I'm [A]gettin' there as fast as I can

[Verse 2]
[G]
[D]Playin' a sunburst Gib[A]son
in [G]an alt- country band
[D]And loving a woman[Em] who
can [G]out- cuss any man
[D]Tell the devil that I'm get[A]tin'
there as fast as I [G]can
I met [D]her in L.A., we was

[Verse 3]
[Em]
openin' for Son [G]Volt
[D]She [A]had eyes mascara'd like
Eva [G]Green's
She sparkled [D]with wildness
[Em]like the blue [G]yonder
[D]She'd done a time in dark[A]ness
and was two [G]years clean
She wears an old leather [D]jacket,
it was [Em]made by Irish [G]saints
And [D]boots engraved [A]with skulls and [G]thorns
She got her ink in [D]Tulsa,
still she [Em]don't like red- dirt [G]bands
[D]Bein' in love wit[Em]h her is like
living in a [G]thunderstorm

[Verse 4]
[D]Tell the devil that I'm get[A]tin'
there as fast [G]as I can
[D]Playin' a sunburst Gib[A]son
in [G]an alt- country band
[D]And loving a woman[Em] who
can [G]out- cuss any man
[D]Tell the devil that I'm get[A]tin' there as fast as I can[G]
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[Em][G][D][A]
[G][D][Em][G][D][Em]
[G][A][Bm]

[Verse 5]
Now the faithless [A]live in grays
and [G]faded [Bm]purples
And the gamblers [A]never bet on
[G]12'[Bm]s or 2's
The drunken poets [A]disappear
into [G]big [D]shadows
And the rock 'n' [Em]roll believers
[G]sing the easy rider blues
[A]

[Verse 6]
[D]
Tell the devil that I'm [A]gettin'
there as fast [G]as I can
[D]Playin' a sunburst Gib[A]son in an
[G]alt- country ban[D]d
And loving [Em]a woman who
can [G]out- cuss any man
[D]Tell the devil that I'm get[A]tin' there as fast as
[G]I can
