Chords with lyrics
Hey everybody. If you're looking at this tab then you're most likely a
Voltaire fan as I am. I kinda got tired of there being no good tabs for any
Voltaire songs, so I decided to make my own. I found out how to play over
half his songs on my own, all by ear! His guitar riffs are very simple. This
is my first tab. Enjoy and rate please!! =]

INTRO:
DmDm)
When the Devil is too busy
DmDm)
And Death's a bit too much
G minorGm)
They call on me by name you see,
G minorGm)
For my special touch.
DmDm)
To the Gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
DmDm)
To the Ladies I'm Sir Prize
G minorGm)
But call me by any name
DmDm)
Any way it's all the same
-----------------------------------
DmDm)
I'm the fly in your soup
DmDm)
I'm the pebble in your shoe
G minorGm)
I'm the pea beneath your bed
G minorGm)
I'm a bump on every head
DmDm)
I'm the peel on which you slip
DmDm)
I'm a pin in every hip
G minorGm)
I'm the thorn in your side
G minorGm)
Makes you wriggle and writhe
---------------------------------------
Chorus
DmDm)
And it's so easy when you're evil
A5A5)
This is the life, you see
DmDm)
The Devil tips his hat to me
DmDm)
I do it all because I'm evil
A5A5)
And I do it all for free
DmDm)
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
---------------------------------------------
Play Verse Here
While there's children to make sad
While there's candy to be had
while there's pockets left to pick
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairs
I'll be there, I'll be waiting 'round the corner
It's a game. I'm glad I'm in it
'Cause there's one born every minute
-------------------------------------------------
Play Chorus Here
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
-------------------------------------------------
Bridge:
G minorGm)
I pledge my allegiance, to all things dark
G minorGm)
And I promise on my damned soul
DmDm)
To do as I am told, Lord Beelzebub
DmDm)
Has never seen a soldier quite like me
G minorGm)
Not only does his job, but does it happily.
--------------------------------------------------
Play Verse Here
I'm the fear that keeps you awake
I'm the shadows on the wall
I'm the monsters they become
I'm the nightmare in your skull
I'm a dagger in your back
An extra turn upon the rack
I'm the quivering of your heart
A augmentedA stabbing pain, a sudden start.
---------------------------------------
Play Chorus Here
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
--------------------------------------------
Bridge 2:
DmDm)
It gets so lonely being evil
A5A5)
What I'd do to see a smile
DmDm)
Even for a little while
DmDm)
And no one loves you when you're evil
A5A5)
I'm lying through my teeth!
DmDm)
Your tears are all the company I need
--------------------------------------------
