Between The Devil And Me
Written by Harley Allen and Carson Chamberlain
Performed by Alan Jackson on "Everything I Love"
 
[Intro]
| D   | D   | D   | D   |
| D   | D   | D   | D
 
[Verse]
               D
This world can take you by the hand
               G/D
And tempt the soul of any man
            D
But you can choose your path
                          A
There's two roads you can take
           D
One way is right and one is wrong
             G/D
The flesh is weak, but love is strong
          D                     A         D
And she's all I see between the devil and me
 
[Chorus]
             D
The gates of hell swing open wide
         G
Invitin' me to step inside
             D
I'll be your friend, he calls again
          A
I know it's him
               D
The flames are spreadin' everywhere
                G
But through the smoke I see her there
      D                     A         D
She's all I see between the devil and me
 
| D   | A   | D   | D
 
[Verse]
           D
I hold her in my arms tonight
            G/D
So safe and warm I close my eyes
      D
And a cool breeze blows
                         A
Across our bodies in the dark
        D
Outside her reach is my concern
            G/D
Somewhere I know a fire burns
          D                     A         D
And she's all I see between the devil and me
 
[Chorus]
             D
The gates of hell swing open wide
         G
Invitin' me to step inside
             D
I'll be your friend, he calls again
           A
I know it's him
               D
The flames are spreadin' everywhere
            G
Through the smoke I see her there
      D                     A         D
She's all I see between the devil and me
 
[Tag]
             D
The gates of hell swing open wide
         G
Invitin' me to step inside
      D                     A         D
She's all I see between the devil and me

This song is such a pleasure for me to play. It went over well with my good friend and the whole Fourth Avenue crowd, in Anchorage Ak. ~ Samuel F Campbell

Great chords!!! Tip for this though tune down to drop d!!! Gives the songs a really cool low end for the D chord when playing alone on guitar
