The Devil Is My Running Mate
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse]
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
Em A G Em
This here is his favorite state
Am G Am
He's sorry you folks had to wait
Em A G Em
He always likes to show up late
Em A G Em
No, that ain't a rainbow, son
Em A G Em
It's streetlamps on petroleum
Am G Am
Let's pull in here and get us some
Em A G Em
Supplies are running out now
Em A G Em
It ain't the reason for the war
Em A G Em
That's meanness, boy, and nothing more
Am G Am
They tried to do this all before
Em A G Em
But Daddy wouldn't let them
[Chorus]
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
Sometimes I don't know what I got into
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
And sometimes I can't stand to read my name
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
Sometimes I can only hear their voices
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Cadd9
Casting me back from where I came
[Verse]
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
Em A G Em
Confusion is his favorite state
Am G Am
Surely you folks can relate
Em A G Em
I know we've gathered here to hate
Em A G Em
It doesn't matter who we blame
Em A G Em
As long as you all hear a name
Am G Am
All them bastards look the same
Em A G Em
Everyone is guilty
Em A G Em
Everybody look away
Em A G Em
Look away, look away
Am G Am
It doesn't matter what I say
Em A G Em
It's what I do that's shifty
[Chorus]
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
Sometimes I don't know what we got into
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
Sometimes I don't think I know a thing
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C Em
Sometimes I can't even see the trees now
D Dsus2 D Am C/B C C Cadd9 Cadd9
For the flames, for the flames
[Verse]
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
Em A G Em
This here is his favorite state
Am G Am
There ain't no other candidate
Em A G Em
It wouldn't matter anyway
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
Em A G Em
The devil is my running mate
