Keep The Devil Outside   by   Strawbs
 
 
Am                   F
As for the help you called for
Am               C
Nobody seemed to answer
Am                       F
The difference in man is no more
     Am                C       
Than being a priest or dancer
 
 
Am                  F
See men of power in recess
     Am                             C
They really don't know what they're after
     Am                            F
They drink to the things that they see best
    Am                          C         C-G-Am
And drown in the tears of their laughter
 
 
CHORUS:
D
If you see fit to fight
 
Whether you're black or white
F                G                 C Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
F                G                 Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
 
 
Am                                   F
You've been given your name and your number
Am                         C
Right from when you were a baby
Am                        F
I look at the earth and I wonder
Am                         C         C-G-Am
What have they done to her lately?
 
 
CHORUS:
D
If you see fit to fight
 
Whether you're black or white
F                G                 C Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
F                G                 Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
 
 
BRIDGE:
D9                       C
Love dies hard, you will never hear me say
D9                     C
That the world will not see a better day
 
See a better day
 
 
CHORUS:
D
If you see fit to hide
 
Mistakes of the men that died
F                G                 C Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
F                G                 Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
 
 
     LEAD BREAK
 
 
CHORUS:
D
If you see fit to fight
 
Whether you're black or white
F                G                 C Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
F                G                 Am
How many hope to keep the devil outside?
