VERSE 1:
 
  A           D
I went to the devil,
 A                   D
“Devil gonna sell my soul
A               D
Gonna come back home to my love,
        E                          A
With my pockets full of silver and gold.”
 
          A                    D
Well your out of luck said the devil
  A                 D
I got no silver and gold
    A                     D
The policeman he come and took up all my land
       E            A
And he left me in a hole.
 
CHORUS
         D  E  A
Well I’m on my own
   E                D
No place to call my home,
A                         E                 A
Ain’t no pretty gal gonna waste her time on me
 
 
VERSE 2:
A                    D
I’ll give you twenty women,
A                    D
Pretty gals for your soul,
        A                      D
They’ll love you sweet all the good days of the week,
          E                             A
Till your buried and your dead and your cold,
 
      A                D
But I already got me a woman,
       A             D
That’s why I look so old,
       A                     D
But if I go home she’s gonna leave me on my own
     E                 A
If I got no silver and gold.

I’ll give you a brand new motorcar
A                 D
Motorcar for your soul
A                      D 
Drive around with your good gal on the town
        E                       A
You can take her right down the road
 
  A                         D
I don’t want your brand new motorcar
A               D
Motorcar for my soul
