Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][Asus4][G][F][G][Asus4][G]
[A][Asus4][F][Dm][G]
[Asus4]

[Verse 1]
[Asus4]I know I [A]ain't been per[Am] fect[Asus4]
I made you [A]feel so [Asus4]bad
When I [A]talked instead of [Asus4]listen ing
I knew that drove you [Am]mad[Asus4]

[Verse 2]
But I [Asus4]know it w[A]asn't only[Asus4] me
There's a chance [A]that
we were [Asus4]cursed
It seemed [A]the more that
we're togeth[Asus4]er
We [Am]only [F]made thing[Am]s wo[Asus4]rse

[Verse 3]
And so I'm [Dm]writing you this letter
And [C]I p[Dm]ray that it gets read
Be[C]fore your [F]soul goes up to [G]heaven, hey

[Verse 4]
And the [A]Devil knows you're [G]dead,
you got to justify your sins
[F](The Devil knows [G]you're dead) you're
gonna have to make [A]amends
(The Devil knows [G]you're dead) you
have to face up to the truth
[F](The Devil knows you're dead) before
this life it cuts [G]you loose
And the Devil knows you're
[A]dead
[Asus4][Dm][Asus4]

[Verse 5]
On the [A]day that I first [Asus4]met you
I knew it in [A]my [Asus4]heart
It's [A]funny how a feel[Asus4]ing
Can rip [Am]your [Asus4]world apart

[Verse 6]
I thought an [A]arrow came from Heav[Asus4]en
I didn't hear that [Am]thund[Asus4]er roar
So I just stood [A]there wait[Asus4]ing
And that [Am]lightning struck once [Asus4]more

[Verse 7]
And so there's [D]a lot I got
[Dm]to think about
When [C]I'm [Dm]lying in my bed
[C]Before [F]my soul goes up to [G]heaven, hey

[Verse 8]
And the [A]Devil knows [Asus4]I'm dead,[G]
there might be time I can con[F]fess
(The Devil knows [G]you're dead) this life
I'm leaving ain't that [Asus4]blessed
(The Dev[A]il knows [G]you're dead) it's
never too late for a change
[F](The Devil knows you're dead) it's
time I took some of the blame
[G]Before the Devil knows you're dea[F]d

[Verse 9]
When he comes [G]around
It's [Dm]far, far too [Am]late
[F]To get down on your [G]knees and learn to [A]pray
[Asus4]

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Asus4][G]
[Asus4][Am][Asus4]

[Verse 10]
So when [D]we think [Dm]we got it all worked out
[C]But our [Dm]number's up instead
[C]I hope our sou[F]ls go up to hea[G]ven

[Verse 11]
Before [A]the Devil knows you're [G]dead,
we still got things to talk about
[F](The Devil knows [G]you're dead) there's
not much time to work [A]it out
(The Devil knows [G]you're dead) it's
time to let go of the past
(The Dev[F]il knows you're dead) 'cause
every breath could be our last
[G]And the Devil knows we're dead

[Verse 12]
[A](The Devil knows [G]you're dead) you've
got to justify your sins
[F](The Devil knows [G]you're dead) you're gonna
have to make amend[A]s
(The Devil knows [G]you're dead) you
have to face up to the truth
[F](The Devil knows you're dead) before
this life it cuts you [G]loose
And the Devil knows you're [A]dead
