Devil In Me

Anderson East


Tom: A

A                               D
There's a girl in Shelbyville, who gave her life to Jesus/
A                               D
At First Antioch Baptist Church, where her Daddy preaches/
Bm7                     D               
She's pretty as her Ma, and only twenty-three/
Bm7                       E
She could be an angel, Lord, she's bringing out the devil in me.


[Chorus]

D                               A
Lord, forgive me for what I'm thinking/
D                               E                       F#m
Cause it's Saturday night and I'm high and I've been drinkin'/
D                       E
Come tomorrow morning, across the aisle/
A                       F#m       D     E           F#m 
I look over and see her smile, I bow my head and the choir sings/
D                       E                               A
Lord, forgive me, she's bringin' out the devil in me.


[Verse 2]

A                               D
Sundress on a willow tree, and the moon's on the water/
A                                       D
I know the Lord's been good to me, when I look at that preacher's daughter/
Bm7                     D
She's my Delilah: she brings me to my knees/
Bm7                             E
She could be an angel, Lord, she's bringing out the devil in me.


[Chorus]

[Chorus]

D                               A
Lord, forgive me for what I'm thinking/
D                               E                       F#m
Cause it's Saturday night and I'm high and I've been drinkin'/
D                       E
Come tomorrow morning, across the aisle/
A                       F#m       D     E           F#m 
I look over and see her smile, I bow my head and the choir sings/
D                       E                               A
Lord, forgive me, she's bringin' out the devil in me.
