A minorAm          C majorC
If I were the devil, first thing that’d I’d do
       G+G          Fmaj7Fmaj7
Is I’d come off like I ever gave a damn about you
A minorAm                  C majorC
I’d let you catch a peak of all your greatest desires
     G+G             Fmaj7Fmaj7
And I’d watch the flames in your eyes burn like hell fire

♫ Verse:
A minorAm          C majorC
Find all the wolves, in the land
    G+G
And I’d make them fight each other
     Fmaj7Fmaj7
Tooth and nail and hand to hand
A minorAm             C majorC
Find all the sheep, make ‘em stir up the pot
         G+G              Fmaj7Fmaj7
‘cause once the wolves have killed each other, sheep are what I want

♫ Chorus:
A minorAm                 C majorC
The devil walks among us friends, I know this is true
    G+G              Fmaj7Fmaj7
And I don’t know if he’s red, and I don’t know if he’s blue
A minorAm                C majorC
One thing that I know we need to take a look around
G+G             Fmaj7Fmaj7
If I were the devil, this world would be my playground

♫ Instrumental:
A minorAm C majorC G+G Fmaj7Fmaj7

♫ Verse:
 A minorAm                  C majorC
‘Cause I’d place that thorny crown on my furrowed brow
      G+G               Fmaj7Fmaj7
Well I’d shine in all the tears of joy, yelling from the crowd
A minorAm                    C majorC
I’d want to brain wash some parents, and I’d have the world
      G+G              Fmaj7Fmaj7
I’ll be in every schoolhouse lecturing little boys and girls

♫ Chorus:
A minorAm                 C majorC
The devil walks among us friends, I know this is true
    G+G              Fmaj7Fmaj7
And I don’t know if it’s me, and I don’t know if it’s you
A minorAm                  C majorC
But one thing that I know we need to take a look around
G+G             Fmaj7Fmaj7
If I were the devil, this world would be my playground

♫ Verse:
A minorAm        C majorC
For my final act, I’ll tell you what’d it’d be
     G+G           Fmaj7Fmaj7
I’d have everyone so medicated, they could never see
A minorAm                  C majorC
My cloven hooves or horned head would be all disguised
     G+G               Fmaj7Fmaj7
And the best part of it all, is they’d comply with their demise

And I don’t know if it’s me, and I don’t know if it’s you
A minorAm                  C majorC
But one thing that I know we need to take a look around

A minorAm               C majorC
If I were the devil, and this world was mine to see
     G+G                 Fmaj7Fmaj7
Well id witness all the atrocities and it’d probably frighten me
A minorAm              C majorC
So I’d run back home, with a story to tell
     G+G             Fmaj7Fmaj7
I’d tell all my demon friends that I always preferred hell
