Dm 
The Devil went down to Georgia 
he was looking for a soul to steal 
He was in a bind cause he was way behind 
he was willin' to make a deal 
When he came across this young man 
sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot 
And the Devil jumped apon a hickory stump 
                                 Bb C Dm 
and said boy let me tell you what 

Dm 
I bet you didn't know it 
but I'm a fiddle player too 
And if you'd care to take a dare 
I'll make a bet with you 
Now you play a pretty good fiddle boy 
but give the devil his due 
I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul 
                                 Bb C Dm 
cause I think I'm better than you  
The boy said my name's Johnny 
and it might be a sin 
But I'll take your bet your gonna regret 
cause I'm the best that's ever been 

Dm 
Johnny your rosin up your bow 
    C 
and play your fiddle hard 
      Gm 
Cause hellâ??s broke loose in Georgia 
         Dm 
and the Devil deals it hard 
                                  Gm 
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold 
    A 
But if you lose the Devil gets your soul 

Violin Solo:  Dm  C  Dm C Bb A G F E Dm 

Dm 
The Devil opened up his case 
and he said I'll start this show 
And fire flew from his fingertips 
as he rosined up his bow 
And he pulled the bow across his strings 
and it made an evil hiss 
Then a band of demons joined in 
                                   A C Dm 
and it sounded something like this

Dm 
When the Devil finished Johnny said 
well you're pretty good ol' sun 
But sit down in that chair right there 
and let me show you how its done 

D 
Fire on the mountain run boys run 
C 
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun 
D 
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough 
C 
Granny does your dog bite no, child, no 

Solo:  Dm C Dm C Dm C  A A A  A C Dm 

Dm 
The Devil bowed his head 
because he knew that he'd been beat 
He laid that golden fiddle 
on the ground at Johnny's feet 
Johnny said Devil just come on back 
if you ever want to try again 
'Cause I told you once you son of a bitch 
I'm the best that's ever been 

And he played  
D 
Fire on the mountain run boys run 
C 
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun 
D 
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough 
C 
Granny does your dog bite no, child, no
