Guitar chords with lyrics

🎸 Intro:

C7 Bm    Bm

🎸 Verse:
Bm
It was on a wedding night
                       C7
How they danced by the firelight
C7
And the bride was well arrayed
               Bm
By her fifteen chambermaids
Bm
As her father raised a toast
                         C7
To the health of all the host
C7
We descended from the apse
                       Bm
To bear witness to the whole collapse

🎸 Chorus:
         B     Bm
And it's ohhhh no!
      B                      Bm
We're jumped up and ready to go
B                           Bm
Where Do you think that the money comes from?
       C7
Do you think it just naturally grows?
         B     Bm
And it's ohhhh no!
   B                      Bm
We lurk at the end of the row
B                          Bm
Listening for whistling, a bang from the drum
       C7                             B
And it seems that we've caught you in tow
B                                   Bm
Between the devil and the devil you know

🎸 Verse:
Bm
In the back of the bazaar
                      C7
By the tramps and the muscle cars
C7
We have gathered two by two
                   Bm
Just to figure out what to do
Bm
Pretty Saro's a sotted mess
                     C7
Gone and spoiled her party dress
C7
All her suitors so entranced
                         Bm
Who will join her in the ambulance?

🎸 Chorus:
         B      Bm
And it's ohhhhh no!
    B                            Bm
I'm sure that you'd just love to know
    B                         Bm
But what will you Do when the rumpus is done
         C7
And it's time that we all were gone home?
         B      Bm
And it's ohhhhh no!
B                       Bm
Kick up your heels in a row
  B                          Bm
A song that is sung where my people come from
         C7                      B
And it's best when it's not sung alone
B                                   Bm
Between the devil and the devil you know

🎸 Chorus:
         B      Bm
And it's ohhhhh no!
B                     Bm
Dash him in one final blow
B                         Bm
Stick to the rackets, the heavy's a hack
         C7      B
And he's singing pianissimo
B                               Bm
For the devil and the devil you know

🎸 Verse:
Bm
When the casks have all run dry
                   C7
And we've laid our knuckles by
C7
Standing legless on the pews
                       Bm
Shouting curses to our union dues
Bm
Out beyond the city walls
                 C7
In the grotesque mountain halls
C7
There's a darkness coming on
                        Bm
So it's best I think we rambled on

🎸 Chorus:
         B      Bm
And it's ohhhhh no!
B                     Bm
On to the next bloody show
B                              Bm
You won't feel so loose with a noose 'round your neck
           C7
When those cold winter winds start to blow
         B      Bm
And it's ohhhhh no!
B   B    B         Bm
One more before we go
B                   Bm
How can we ever get used to this dreck?
           C7                    B
'Cause I'm sick and I want to Go home
B                             Bm
To the devil and the devil we know
B                             Bm
To the devil and the devil we know
B                             Bm
To the devil and the devil we know
