G               D           C
I lit out from Reno I was trailed by twenty hounds
G               D                        C
Didn't get to sleep that night till the morning
came around

Chorus:
D
Set out runnin' but I take my time
   Am
a friend of the devil is a friend of mine
   D
If I get home before day light
Am                    C      D
Just might get some sleep tonight

Well, I ran into the devil
He loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills

Chorus

Well, I ran down to the levee
But the devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill
And he vanished in the air

Chorus

 D
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night
     C
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie
and she's my heart's delight
 D
Second one is prison, baby, the shefiff's
on my trail
    Am                              C
and if he catches up with me I'll spend my life in
 D
jail

Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie
And she's my heart's delight

Chorus

Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie
And she's my heart's delight

The second one is prison, baby
The sheriff's on my trail
And if he catches up to me
I'll spend my life in jail

Yeah, I said I got a wife in Chino, baby
I got one in Cherokee
The first one says she's got my child
But it does not look like me
