verse 1 
C                           F               C 
Well a you think you're the hottest thing a going 
    F                  G7                   C 
The way things come to you you think you're in 
                      F                         C 
But one of these days that wind's a gonna start blowing 
    F                G7                C 
You may not lose but big boy you won't win 

          F                                    C     B C 
Cause the devil gets his dues and you'll start paying 
F                                         C   B C 
When he collects you know you've pay your debt 
F                                     C     B C 
The devil gets his dues like I been a saying 
       F                     G7              C 
You'll hurt just like you've hurt me you can bet

verse 2 
C                            F                C 
When it comes to love you've read the devil's menu 
    F                   G7                C 
And you brag a lot that you just can't be hurt 
                    F               C 
You're not the only one who knows a trick or two 
     F               G7               C 
Some day I might rub your face in the dirt 

verse 3 
          C                      F                    C 
Well your little play house is a sitting on sticks of dynamite 
  F             G7                    C 
I might get mad tonight and light the fuse 
                   F                C 
If you come in and find out that my dog bites 
       F                G7              C 
You'll know the devil's here collecting dues 

          F                                    C     B C 
Cause the devil gets his dues and you'll start paying 
F                                         C   B C 
When he collects you know you've pay your debt 
F                                     C     B C 
The devil gets his dues like I been a saying 
       F                     G7              C 
You'll hurt just like you've hurt me you can bet
