Dm Dm Dm Dm
[Verse 1]
DmWay down yonder you can hear the wind blow
Through the tall grass growing in the old GbayouDm  
DmThe old bayou
DmThere's a dark haired woman that looks so fine
DmWearing hand me down clothes, drinking Ghomemade wineDm  
GNo one ever knew who her daddy was
The Dmpeople down here say it's all because
[Chorus]
She's the Gdaughter of the devil, the sister of a snake
The Akeeper of souls down on CVodoo LakeDm  
[Verse 2]
DmThere's a city boy across the county line
Came looking for the legend of the girl so GfineDm  
DmWell the stories that he heard, well they had to be lies
But he found out different when he looked in Gher eyesDm  
Well he Gtried to run away but she had control
He's Dmfinding out now what everybody knows
He Gknew it was over when she started to shake
Now there's Aone more soul down on CVoodoo LakeDm  
DmThere's an eerie silence at the break of dawn
A Gchill in the air, Csomething wrongDm  
DmWhen a shadow crosses the ground
Those Glong lost souls never Cmake a sound
You'd Gthink by now they'd realize
DmShe'll never break her bayou ties
[Chorus]
She's the Gdaughter of the devil, the sister of a snake
The Akeeper of souls down on CVodoo LakeDm  
[Outro]
DmVoodoo Lake, Voodoo Lake
DmDaughter of the Devil, sister of a snake
DmVoodoo Lake
DmDown on Voodoo Lake, Down on Voodoo Lake
DmYou can see her down on Voodoo Lake
