Charted by Dexex
Built on the shoulders of the chart for "Devil Is My Running Mate" posted in 2014 by RobertSin. The 2015 chart
by Matt.Russell13 was a duplicate of the RobertSin chart with all the chords noted and a "The" in the title.
FYI: My chord charts are not "tabs" (guides to replicating an artist's past performance).
I don't claim any of my charts show the "right" way to play a song. This chord chart represents my personal
interpretation of this song. And as such, it's not something I care to debate. Think of it as a road map
for my own, and maybe for your own, future performances.
If you have another way to play this song, great. Please, post your own chart. We all benefit when someone
contributes.
Cheers!
