DEAR JOHN LETTER (TO THE DEVIL)
[G]Well I used to love you but now that's hard to do
Cause I got some information 'bout them [D]evil things at night that you [C]do
And the whole thing is [G]through (we're through)
[D]Oh you're such a devil
[C]how'd you get me to believe you were [G]true (ooh)
[G]Oh my mama warned me and how my daddy cried
The day I left my home you said you'd [D]always keep me satis[C]fied
But oh how you [G]lied (you lied)
Well I [D]should have heard my mama's words
But [C]then I guess I had too much [G]pride (original sin)
[C]I used to lie awake at [D]night and see your face on the [G]ceilin'
Oh, what a bad [Am]feelin'
When I [C]think of how you almost got [D]me in the ways of the [G]world
In the ways of the [D]world
Strum D four times
[G]My so called friends said I misjudged you my anger's all in vain
But I'm afraid you got to them [D]before I had a chance to [C]explain
And it caused me such [G]pain (ooh ouch)
Cause [D]they were such good friends of mine
And [C]now you've got them playin' your [G]game (you creep)
[C]I used to lie awake at [D]night and see your face on the [G]ceilin'
Oh what a bad [Am]feelin'
Of how when I [C]think of how you almost got [D]me in the ways of the [G]world
In the ways of the [C]world
Oh in the [D]ways of the [G]world
In the [C]ways of the [G]world
Strum D four times
(Guitar Solo)
[G]But I believe in Jesus and what he said he's gonna do
Put an apple in your lyin' mouth and [D]cook you in a sulfur [C]stew (whew)
One that'll never be [G]through (is it soup yet? No!)
Oh but [D]if he hadn't rescued me then [C]I'd be down there cookin' [G]too
Oh if [D]Jesus hadn't rescued me
[C]I'd be cookin' right next to [G]you (ewww)
[C]I used to lie awake at [D]night and see your face on the [G]ceilin'
Oh, what a great f[Am]eelin'
When I [C]think of how you're gonna get [D]yours at the end of the [G]world
At the end of the [C]world
Oh at the [D]end of the [G]world
At the [C]end of the [G]world
(End.)
