Friend of the Devil (w/Riffs)

Written by John Dawson/Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter

	  		G 
I lit out from Reno, 
      C 
I was trailed by twenty hounds 
G 
Didn't get to sleep that night 
          C 
'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 
If I get home before daylight, 
  Am                  C       D 
I just might get some sleep tonight. 
 
Ran into the devil, babe, 
He loaned me twenty bills 
I spent the night in Utah 
In a cave up in the hills. 
 
Set out runnin' but I take my time, 
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, 
If I get home before daylight, 
I just might get some sleep tonight. 
 
I ran down to the levee 
But the devil caught me there 
He took my twenty dollar bill 
And vanished in the air. 
 
Set out runnin' but I take my time 
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine 
If I get home before daylight, 
I just might get some sleep tonight. 
 
D 
Got two reasons why I cry 
D 
Away each lonely night, 
    C 
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie, 
    C                          C  C# 
And she's my hearts delight. 
    D 
The second one is prison, baby, 
    D 
The sheriff's on my trail, 
    Am 
And if he catches up with me, 
     C                D 
I'll spend my life in jail. 
 
Got a wife in Chino, babe, 
And one in Cherokee 
The first one says she's got my child, 
But it don't look like me. 
 
Set out runnin' but I take my time, 
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, 
If I get home before daylight, 
I just might get some sleep tonight. 
 
Extra Verse 
 
You can borrow from the devil 
You can borrow from a friend 
The devil?ll loan ya twenty 
But your friend got only ten
