Subject: RE: Chords Req: Old Devil Time (Pete Seeger)
Here it is:
G C6-D7 G
Old Devil Time, I'm going to fool you now!
C6-D7 G D7
Old devil time, you'd like to bring me down!
G C6 D7 G
When I'm feeling low, my lovers gather round
C Am D7 G
And help me rise to fight you one more time.
Old devil fear, you with your icy hands,
Oldl deveil fear, you'd like to freeze me cold!
When I'm sore afraid, my lovers gather round
And help me rise to fight you one more time.
Old devil pain you often pinned me down,
You thought I'd cry and beg you for the end.
But at that very time, my lovers gather round
And help me rise to fight you one more time!
Old devil hate, I knew you long ago,
Then I found out the poison in your breath.
Now when we hear your lies, my lovers gather round
And help me rise to fight you one more time!
No storm nor fire can ever beat us down,
No wind that blows but carries us further on.
And you who fear, oh lovers, gather round
And we can rise and sing it one more time!
