Verse repeats chords:
I can persuade people as well as anybody
I got the vision, but it could cause division
I can twist the truth as well as anybody
I know how to do it
I been all the way through it
But it don't suit my purposes and it ain't my goal
To gain the whole world
But give up my soul
And I ain't gonna go to hell for anybody
Not for father not for mother not for sister not for brother
No way!
Bridge:
Em Bm/ C G/
Smoke arises forever, got a one-way ticket to burn
Em Bm/
A place reserved for the Devil
C G/
And for all of those that done evil
C G D/
Places of darkness, a trace you can never return
I can write and steal from people as well as anybody
Know all the devices, paid a lot of prices
I can influence people as well as anybody
Go right up to 'em, I know how to do 'em
Don't need to depend on tricks or on cards
I see through man's delusions, I see through his facades
And I ain't gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain't gonna go to hell for anybody
No, I ain't gonna go to hell for anybody
Not today, not tonight, not tomorrow
No never
No way!
