F°       E7  Bm7(b5)  F°            Am7  Am7/6            
It's that ole devil called love again 
               F#7  C#m7(b5)       G°       F#7  
Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shock again 
                Bm  Bm7/  E           Dm6  E7/6 
Puttin' rain in my eyes, tears in my dreams 
And A6rocks in my F#mheart 
F°       E7  Bm7(b5)   E7  F°        Am7  Am7/6  
It's that sly ole  son  of a gun again 
                    F#7  C#m7(b5)    G°   F#7  
He keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one again 
                    Bm  Bm7/  E               Dm6  E7/6 
But I still have that rain, still have those tears 
          Bm7(b5)        A  
And those rocks in my heart 
Bridge: 
        D9  F°         E7          Am7   Bbm9  
Suppose I didn't stay -- ran away, wouldn't play. 
                  D9  E7/6  Bm7(b5)     Am7/6  
The devil -- what a potion he would brew! 
          B7     F7      B7  E7/9         C°    E7/9 
He'd follow me around, build me up, tear me down, 
Till D9I'd be so beDm6wildered, I wF7ouldn't know what to E7do. 
F°       E7  Bm7(b5) F°             Am7  Am7/6  
Might as well give  up the fight again 
                  F#7  C#m7(b5)        G°       F#7  
I know darn well he'll convince me that he's right again 
                       Dm7           Dm6  Bm7(b5) F°   E7/6 
When he sings that sorry song, I just gotta tag a - long 
            D9     E7  Bm7(b5)      A  
With that ole devil called love.
