That silver tounged devil just slipped from the shadows
DO RE7 SOL
And smilingly stole her away
DO SOL
chorus: I said girl don't you know he's a devil
DO SOL
He's everything that I ain't
DO SOL MIm DO RE7
Hiding intentions of evil under the smile of a saint
DO SOL
All he's good for is getting in trouble
DO SOL
And slipping his share of the blame
DO SOL
And some people swear he's my double
DO RE7
And some even say we're the same
DO SOL
But the silver-tounged devil's got nothing to lose
DO SOL
And I'll only live 'till I die
DO SOL MIm
We take our own chances and pay our own dues
DO RE7 SOL
The silver tounged devil and I
Like all the young ladies who've laid down beside him
She knew in her heart that he lied
But nothing that I could have said could have saved her
No matter how hard that I tried
'Cause she'll offer her soul up to darkness and danger
Of a world that she's never known
And open her arms at the smile of a stranger
Who'll love her and leave her alone
