The Devil Named Music

Chris Stapleton

Traveller, 2015, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

We drove all night to Billings, Montana
Flew into Utah and slept there all day
I can't remember stopping in Denver
Yeah, I live my illusion that somebody needs me to play
And sometimes I'm drunk
And sometimes I'm stoned
And yes, I get tired
Of being alone
And I miss my son
And I miss my wife
But the devil named music
Is taking my life
Now, I sold my soul a long time ago
I put it in a six strings and a sad melody
And I'm sometimes a winner
Most times a loser
And if the crowd gets into it
It'll all feel the same way to me
Sometimes I'm drunk
And sometimes I'm stoned
And yes, I get tired
Of being alone
And I miss my daughter
And I miss my wife
But the devil named music
Is taking my life
Sometimes I'm drunk
Sometimes I'm stoned
And yes, I get tired
Of bein' alone
I miss my son
And I miss my wife
But the devil named music
Is taking my life
Sometimes I'm drunk
And sometimes I'm stoned
Yes, I get tired
Of being alone
I miss my daughter
And I miss my wife
But the devil named music
Is taking my life
Yeah, the devil named music
Is taking my life
