Dialogue With The Devil

Written by Bruce Cockburn

	  		

     G            A          E 
1.  Standing on a rock, in a river. 
     G              A         E 
    Staring at the splintered sun. 
    G          F           C         G/B 
    You could drowned yourself in jewels, 
    D       Am7      G      A 
    Like a thousand other fools. 
    E                            C                 G 
    While you stand there looking down at what you won. 

    G            A             E 
2.  Sitting on a mountain of ashes. 
    G         A            E 
    Face to face with past regrets. 
    G          F            C      G/B 
    You could roll down to the canyon, 
    D     Am7           G   A 
    Piss away this incarnation. 
         E                  C                 G 
    But remember,  that you pay for what you get. 
                       E          D        E       D 
       And he says;  "Don't you know, how hard it is, 
                          E        D         E      D 
                      to hit the ground,  and mean it. 
                        E     D 
                     And mean it." 
    
    G         A                  E 
3.  Walk the jangling streets of the city, 
    G          A               E 
    Trying to find the buried sun. 
     G         F                C     G/B 
    You could drowned yourself in jewels, 
    D        Am7      G     A 
    Like a thousand other fools, 
          E                      C            G 
    While you wonder,   waiting for it to be done. 
                      E 
      And he cries;  "Why don't we celebrate, why don't we celebrate, 
                      G                 A 
                      Love can make you sad,  come on, 
                                   E 
                      Let's drive ourselves mad." 
                          E      D        E       D       E       D 
                      And he's aware, how hard it is,  to kiss the sun, 
                          E     D         E     D 
                      And mean it,    and mean it. 

    G           A             E 
4.  Standing on a rock,  in a river. 
    G            A            E 
    Staring at the rain,  made one. 
    G          F             C    G/B 
    On the surface, flashing diamonds,   
    D       Am7          G       A 
    Rolling down the twilight canyon. 
            E                   C           G 
    And we shall kiss the sun,  in spite of him. 
         E 
         So why don't we celebrate,   why don't we celebrate.... 

         (Repeat and fade)
