Notes:
    -This is not how John Butler plays devil running (he plays it in
     open C tuning), but this version is based on it as accurately as
     possible, while keeping it relatively simple.

    -If you don't want to play this in Drop D tuning, you can simply
     ignore the bottom line of the tab completely and play the
     following powerchords for the chorus and bridge:
