Devil May Care

 
    C                   E7 
The coffee is cold, the story is old, 
    F                 D4    D7 
The letter lies in my hand 
    C                            E7 
The names have been changed, the words rearranged 
        F                   G 
My baby left me for another man 
   Am                         E7 
My heart should be broken, my head should be smokin' 
   F                    D7 
My big feet walkin' the floor 
    C                           F         G 
But I cant find a tear, now the devil may care 
    C           C    G 
but I don't 
 

 
    C                            E7 
See I was just readin' 'bout the garden of Eden 
F                     D7 
Adam he was really in love 
     C                    E7 
They had everything, you could ever dream 
        F                          G 
And Eve said somehow it just isn't enough 
    Am                           E7 
The apple it was picked and then they were evicted 
    F                        D7 
And Eve said I need some new clothes 
        C 
And it's been downhill from there now, 
    F     G            C      F    C    G 
The devil may care but I don't

    E                          Am 
I'm probably misdirected but a heart must be protected 
     E                      Am 
When angels come down from above 
     E                       Am 
It's highly overrated and it gets so complicated 
         D7                  G 
And I've never been lucky in love 
 

 
C                        E7 
Here is the part where I open my heart, 
    F                          D7 
And tell you where it all went wrong 
     C                        E7 
Yes, there was this girl, she was my whole world 
    F                          G 
And life was like a silly love song 
    Am                       E7 
She said let's be friends, I said: define friends 
           F                    D7 
She said I never wanna see you again 
        C 
And its been downhill from there now 
    F         G        C       F    C 
The devil may care but I don't 
 

 
E                           Am 
Anyone will tell you that a broken heart will kill you 
     E                       Am 
When love comes apart at the seams 
  E                                   Am 
A girl will say she loves you and she puts no one above you 
         D7                           {G} 
And then drop you like a sack full of beans 

{Ending} 
                                    E7 
Well, my friends all remind me that love will soon find me 
    F                   D7 
And I hope to heaven it don't 
  C                             F         G 
A sad state of affairs now, the devil may care 
     C                   F         G 
it's high overrated, the devil may care 
         C                        F         G          {C} 
It's all downhill from there, the devil may care but I don't
