        << Back to Amigo The Devil Song List
Version 1
            6/8 125 BPM
Fingerpicking all the way through, some of the vocal timings are a bit tricky so definitely play along
to the original a couple of times to get it down.
Amigo plays the chords barred; the section with 4 A's can more accurately be described as A A Asus4 A5, since
he raises the major third to a suspended fourth, then finally to the perfect fifth.
[Intro]
A A A A
[A Section]
A
It's a quarter to two and the bars are all closing
D                     A
Nobody looks how they think
    E
The guy in the corner with spit in his beard,
        D                                  A
wearing more than he drank of his drink
[B Section]
D
The dancers are shaking like ants
             E
Desparate to find a last minute queen
          A                         A/G#
While the rest of us are all headed home
               F#m
To try finding comfort in dreams
[C Section]
                     E
Cause this isn't life
                  D
And I know that I chose it
            A
But I can't stand waking up
           F#m
And nobody knows it
                    E
I'll never find the strength
                 D
to change what I need
   Dm                   A
Is this who I’ll always be?
A A A A
[A Section]
  A
I open my eyes and the room is still spinning
I joke about buying a vowel
    E                                            D
Thе funniest part of this feeling is knowing the answer
                  A
but nothing comеs out
[B Section]
       D
So I'm shaking around like I'm hanging from something
  E
I know is about to break
     A                          A/G#
Like I'm biting the gun but the safety is on
  F#m
I threw up the pills I ate
    D
The notes are all scribbled in pencil
               E
Without really knowing what I'm trying to write
               A                         A/G#                  F#m
Something like 'goddamn the man who said everything's gonna be fine'
[Bridge]
But life is a lot like a sewer
       D                         Dm
We get out of it what we put in
                        A
That's when doubt kicks in
A A A A
[C Section]
        F#m
Maybe I just don't have it inside me
      E
Maybe there's too much I couldn't face
              A
I just wanted someone to come down from heaven
                 E
and explain this cold and fucked up place
         D
But I'll just keep trying to hide it
              F#m
until there's nothing left to save
       E                     D                          A
In the end, I know I'm gonna die buried in another man's grave
