Intro:

D  D  D  D
 


Verse :
   D
A little outside of Elizabethtown
 
There’s a little bar where 

I’d sit down
             G                  
And trade a couple country songs 
              D
for Kentucky Bourbon
 
   D
A little ol’ gal in the middle

of the night
 
Learning how to love and 

learning how to fight
     G                      
And learning how to like my 
          D
brand of hurting
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
 A
Hell there's hell everywhere I go
          G            N.C. 
I’m just sticking with the 
             D 
devil I know
 
 
Chorus:
 G
Momma says get my ass to church
 
Daddy says get my ass to work
 D
Doctor says I gotta give up on 

these smokes
 
 G
Everybody’s got something to say
 
About how I gotta change my ways
 
    Bm                  A         G
But I got something to say of my own
 
 G
Hell there's hell everywhere I go
          G                         D
I’m just sticking with the devil I know
 
 


Verse :
D
I love somebody everybody loves
 
And he’s in love with my messed up
 G                                           D
Most folks can’t see my soul through the smoke
 
           D
And we’re suitcase marks on a hardwood floor
 
Flipping the bird, slamming the door
             G                                   D
And feeling out and turning 'round and coming home
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
     A
And hell there's hell everywhere I go
        G                         D
So I’m sticking with the devil I know
 
 
Chorus:
 G
Momma says get my ass to church
 
Daddy says get my ass to work
 D
Doctor says I gotta give up on these smokes
 
 G
Everybody’s got something to say
 
About how I gotta change my ways
 
    Bm                  A         G
But I got something to say of my own
 
 
Break: (ACAPELLA)
 
There's higher roads that I rode
 
And better choices than I chose
                                    D  D  D  D
I’m just sticking with the devil I know
 
 
Instrumental/Solo:
         G
Hey-hey hey hey hey
     D
Hey heeey hey hey
     G
Woah oh oh oh oh
 
 
Chorus:
 G
Momma says get my ass to church
 
Daddy says get my ass to work
 D
Doctor says I gotta give up on these smokes
 
 G
Everybody’s got something to say
 
About how I gotta change my ways
 
    Bm                  A         G
But I got something to say of my own
 
 
Outro:
              G                G
Hell there's hell everywhere I go
                      G
I’m just sticking with the devil I know
