Paul McCartney - Run Devil Run: chords

Chorus:
E
Run devil run, the angel's having fun
Making winners out of sinners, better leave before
he's done
 B7
When he gets through he'll be coming after you
 E                              A G
Listen what I'm saying to you, run
A          E
Run devil run

E
By a swamp in Alabama in the cold and the damp
Sitting reading by the light of a kerosene lamp
A7
Lives a holy roller with a mission in her mind
E
Got to spread the word to anybody she can find
B7
You can hear her screaming any time of night or day
E
This is what she says to keep the demons away

Chorus

Her brother and her sister said that she
brought them down
Stepping on a bus that was heading for town
There they started drinking, they got into a fight
The sheriff introduced them to the jailhouse for
a night
When the holy roller came to town to pay the bail
This is what she sang as she was leaving the jail

Chorus

Well by the middle of the summer they were back
on the shack
Picking cotton for a living, keeping on the right
track
Visiting the neighbours, trying to spread the good
news
Singing gospel music with a hint of the blues
All of them determined to deliver the goods
Man, you hear the music coming out of the woods

Chorus

            A G
You better run
A          E
Run devil run
You better run
Run devil run
