Song: Silver Tongued Tab

(capo on 2)
Intro C-F-Dm-E-F (4x)
C
Employer of a leisured hand
F
The devil finds a job for every man
C
Stealer of the worn out soul
F
He bends but never breaks down, never folds
Dm       C
And he’ll victim any crime
G           F
Just to keep you in his sights
Dm              C
Sink the needle in the hay
F
And while you look for it he’ll steal your soul away
C
I’ve never known a worst hard time
F
Assembling the cocaine into lines
C
I’d never felt the hook before
F
When 3 A.M. comes knocking at your door
Dm       C
And the hunger that you feel
G           F
Can’t be filled by any meal
Dm       C
And the silver on your tongue
F
Never meant that much when all was said and done
Intro C-F-Dm-E-F (2x)
Em               F
Up before the inn keeper
Em               F            C
You’ll never find the devil sleeping in
Em                      F
And when you lie awake at dawn
G
He’ll populate your feelings with his own
C
I’ve never known him by his name
F
But recognize his face when he appears
C
He never seems to want that much
F
Until your willing power’s in his clutch
Dm       C
And the hunger that you feel
G           F
Can’t be filled by any meal
Dm       C
And the silver on your tongue
F
Never meant that much when all was said and done
