    By The Devil I Was Tempted

G
I've done a lot of laughing
                    C
and a little bit of crying
                   D
I've been a lot of places
                   G
And made a mess of friends
Got wedded to the whisky
                      C   G
Should've been a good woman
             C
If I could re-live my days
G
Changing my ways
    D                  G
I'd not touch' a drop again

[Na na na na na bit - C G D G]

                   C
By the devil I was tempted
                   G
And many jugs I've emptied
            D
I felt so rejected
                   G     G7
I didn't wanna go astray
                       C
Half my life has been awasted
                  G
By the booze I've tasted
                     D
But the demon I have faced it
                    G
And sent him on his way

I hope I'll be forgiven
For all my bad livin'
I had to make some changes
'Fore he got me in the end
Now I've got a pretty woman
She gives me good lovin'
I can 't re-live all my days
in a different way
But I won't go astray again

By the devil I was tempted
And many jugs I've emptied
I felt so rejected
I didn't wanna go astray
Half my life has been awasted
By the booze I've tasted
But the demon I have faced it
And sent him on his way
