The Silver Tongued Devil Written and recorded by Kris Kristofferson [3/4 time]
G G7 I took myself down to the Tally Ho Tavern C G To buy me a bottle of beer C G Em And I sat myself down by a tender young maiden A7 D7 Whose eyes were as dark as her hair
G G7 And as I was searching from bottle to bottle C G For something un-foolish to say C G Em That silver tongued devil just slipped from the shadows A7 D7 G And smilingly stole her away
C G I said hey little girl don't you know he's a devil C G He's everything that I ain't C G Em Hiding intentions of evil A7 D7 Under the smile of a saint
C G All he's good for is getting’ in trouble C G And shifting his share of the blame C G Em And some people swear he's my double A7 D7 And some even say we're the same
C G But the silver-tonged devil's got nothing to lose C G And I'll only live 'till I die C G Em We take our own chances and pay our own dues D7 G The silver tonged devil and I
Like all the fair ladies who've laid down beside him C G She knew in her heart that he lied C G Em But nothing that I could have said could have saved her A7 D7 No matter how hard that she tried
G Cause she'll offer her charms to the darkness and danger C G Of something she's never known C G Em And open her arms at the smile of a stranger A7 D7 G Who'll love her and leave her alone
C G And you know he’s the devil C G He's everything that I ain't C G Em Hiding intentions of evil A7 D7 Under the smile of a saint
C G All he's good for is getting’ in trouble C G And shifting his share of the blame C G Em And some people swear he's my double A7 D7 And some even say we're the same
C G But the silver-tonged devil's got nothing to lose C G And I'll only live 'till I die C G Em We take our own chances and pay our own dues D7 G The silver tonged devil and I
