************* THE DEVIL'S RIGHT HAND ***************
written by Steve Earle
performed by Waylon Jennings
Kris Kristofferson
Willie Nelson
Johnny Cash
Verse 1:(Johnny Cash)
E
About the time that daddy left to fight the big war
B
I saw my first pistol in the general store
In the general store,when i was thirteen
E
Thought it was the finest thing i ever had seen
Verse 2:(Willie Nelson)
E
So i asked if i could have one some day when i grew up
B
Mama dropped a dozen eggs,she really blew up
She really blew up and i didn't understand
E
Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand
Chorus:(All together)
A E
The devil's right hand,the devil's right hand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand
Verse 3:(Kris Kristofferson)
E
My very first pistol was a cap and ball colt
B
Shoots as fast as lightin' but it loads a mighty slow
Loads a mighty slow and soon i found out
E
It can get you into trouble but it can't get you out
Verse 4:(Waylon Jennings)
E
So then i went and bought myself a colt 45
B
Called a peacemaker but i never knew why
Never knew why,i didn't understand
E
'Cause Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand
Chorus.(x2)

Verse 5:(a tone higher)
F#
Well i got into a card game in a company town
C#
Caught a miner cheating i shot the dog down
Shot the dog down,watched the man fall
F#
Never touched his holster never had a chance to draw
The trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
C#
Asked me how i pleaded,not guilty i said
Not guilty i said,you've got the wrong man
F#
Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
Chorus bis:(a tone higher)
