Demon in Disguise
©2003 Garrett Clevenger

G She used to be an angel in my mind.
G C I thought about her mostly all the time.
C She gave me kisses on the lips
G and took me on her nightly trips.
Am D I wanted nothing more than her sunshine.

G But now so many different things have changed.
G C The patterns of her flight have rearranged.
C Instead of being here at night
G I’m left alone ‘til morning’s light.
Am D Feeling like a madman who’s deranged.

Chorus:
C    Em I cry, cry cry like all the other guys.
Am G I pine and wait and want with all the rest.
C  Em Perhaps one day we all will meet
Am G and with our numbers we will beat this
C Em Am G D demon in disguise.

G Yesterday she flew above my head,
G C laughing as her wings around me spread.
C She drew me closer with her charms
G and held me tightly in her arms.
Am D My heart no longer felt like lead.

G After she lifted me up high,
G C soaring with the clouds into the sky.
C She let go. Then I fell slow,
G tearing towards the hell below.
Am D Burning in this furnace was my soul.

Chorus:
C    Em I cry, cry cry like all the other guys.
Am G I pine and wait and want with all the rest.
C  Em Perhaps one day we all will meet
Am G and with our numbers we will beat this
C Em Am G D demon in disguise.

Jam

G This angel is a demon in disguise.
G C I should have known it by the way she flies.
C Tickling my heart and soul.
G What once was mine she now has stole.
Am D All I’ve left is wondering where she lies.

Chorus:
C    Em I cry, cry cry like all the other guys.
Am G I pine and wait and want with all the rest.
C  Em Perhaps one day we all will meet
Am G and with our numbers we will beat this
C Em Am G D demon in disguise.
