[Verse 1]
[Am]So hold your head,
[C]and hold your tongue
But only say what you [Am]have to
And as a [Em]child yes [C]I dreamed
Of holding her [Dm]in the silver screen
[Am]She loved her [Em]man and [C]loved him twice
I wish I'd been [Dm]that passen[Am]ger
Having fun[Em], fly my kite
[C]The devil insid[Dm]e won't control my lif[Am]e
Too much [Em]love, so [C]little hate
The devil in[Dm]side won't control my [F]fate
[C]Oh, if only, if only

[Verse 2]
[F]
[C]Oh, he wasn't so lon[F]ely
[C]He'd have someone to play [F]with
[C]Instead of bombing our
neigh[Am]bours[Em]
[C]Yeah, [Dm]yeah
So [Am]here [Em]I go to see the world

[Verse 3]
[C]
With my [Dm]eye s and with my soul
[Am]And too much[Em] love, so little hate[C]
The devil in[Dm]side won't control my [F]fate
[C]Oh, if [F]only, if [C]only

[Verse 4]
[F]
[C]Oh, he wasn't so lon[F]ely
[C]He'd have someone to play [F]with
[C]Instead of bombing our neighbours
Yeah, [Dm]yeah[Am]
[Em]Yeah![C][Dm]

[Verse 5]
[Am]So hold your[C] head and run my time
The what [Dm]of life no [C]man can [Am]rhyme
So here [Em]we are and here we bleed
[C]To be a victim[Dm] there's no need[Am]
Having fun[Em], I never fi[C]ght
The devil in[Dm]side controls my life
[Am]Too much [Em]love so [C]little hate
The devil in[Dm]side controls my [F]fate
[C]Oh, if only, if only

[Verse 6]
[F]
[C]Oh, he wasn't so lon[F]ely
[C]He'd have someone to play with
Instead of [F]bomb[C]
[F]ing [C]our neighbours
