Devils Dont Fly

Chords

Standard

Dm                       F
I heard the angels call again
    Bb            Am
I threw myself a party
Bb             C
Chardonnay and oxy

Dm                             F
I stopped the screams inside my head
     Bb              Am
I remember when you had me
          Bb                C
Floating high like Sid and Nancy

          Dm                     F
They say it's not the answer but I can't carry on
              Bb        Am       Bb                C
'Cause I got nowhere, no one, without you boy I'm done
And when I'm gone, remember you're the one
And just because I fight don't mean that I never learned how to love

[Chorus:]
                      Dm
You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
            F
So don't expect me not to fall
              Bb            Am
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
           Bb             C
But God we almost had it all
            Dm
But I got chains and you got wings,
               F
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
               Bb         Am Bb C
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
         Dm
But I try.

Dm                                   F
What's a girl to do when she's not strong
      Bb             Am
When everyone that holds my hand
     Bb               C
Gets cut from all the thorns
Dm                               F
I used to put my ear against the wall
   Bb                     Am
To hear the screams, to hear the fall
       Bb          C
More reasons to escape it all

    Dm                          F
And it's not the answer but I can't carry on
          Bb              Am
I give my best smile, my last dime
          Bb            C
But I'm always getting wrong
                     Dm                     F
It's not 'cause I'm young or from a broken home
               Bb                  Am             Bb    C
Maybe I just fight 'cause I don't know where I belong

[Chorus:]
                      Dm
You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
            F
So don't expect me not to fall
              Bb            Am
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
           Bb             C
But God we almost had it all
            Dm
But I got chains and you got wings,
               F
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
               Bb         Am Bb C
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
         Dm
But I try.


Bb                         Dm
Angels were never meant to fall
Bb                          Dm
And you were the loveliest of all
Gm                      Dm
If I thought God could fix it
Gm                      Dm
I'd pray for your forgiveness
               C (hold C)
But I've been cast down, thrown out
When I crossed to the other side

No devils don't fly!

[Chorus:]
                      Dm
You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
            F
So don't expect me not to fall
              Bb            Am
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
           Bb             C
But God we almost had it all
            Dm
But I got chains and you got wings,
               F
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
               Bb         Am Bb C
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
          Dm
But I try.
