Dear John Letter To The Devil

G
Well I used to love you but now that's hard to do
                                        D                             C
Cause I got some information 'bout them evil things at night that you do
                       G
And the whole thing is through (we're through)
D
Oh you're such a devil
C                                    G
how'd you get me to believe you were true (ooh)

G
Oh my mama warned me and how my daddy cried
                                      D                   C
The day I left my home you said you'd always keep me satisfied
               G
But oh how you lied (you lied)
       D
Well I should have heard my mama's words
    C                           G
But then I guess I had too much pride (original sin)

C                      D                              G
I used to lie awake at night and see your face on the ceilin'
               Am
Oh, what a bad feelin'
       C                           D                     G
When I think of how you almost got me in the ways of the world
                   D
In the ways of the world

My so called friends said I misjudged you my anger's all in vain
                               D                        C
But I'm afraid you got to them before I had a chance to explain
                      G
And it caused me such pain (ooh ouch)
      D
Cause they were such good friends of mine
    C                                G
And now you've got them playin' your game (you creep)

              C                           D                     G
Of how when I think of how you almost got me in the ways of the world
                   C
In the ways of the world
          D           G
Oh in the ways of the world
       C           G
In the ways of the world

But I believe in Jesus and what he said he's gonna do
                                     D                    C
Put an apple in your lyin' mouth and cook you in a sulfur stew (whew)
                     G
One that'll never be through (is it soup yet? No!)
       D                            C                         G
Oh but if he hadn't rescued me then I'd be down there cookin' too
      D
Oh if Jesus hadn't rescued me
C                            G
I'd be cookin' right next to you (ewww)

Oh, what a great feelin'
       C                             D                       G
When I think of how you're gonna get yours at the end of the world
                  C
At the end of the world
          D          G
Oh at the end of the world
       C          G
At the end of the world
