Devils Don't Fly

I heard the angels call again
I threw myself a party
Chardonnay and oxy
I stopped the screams inside my head
I remember when you had me
Floating high like Sid and Nancy

They say it's not the answer but I can't carry on
'Cause I got [Fm7]nowhere, no one, without you [A7boy I'm done
And when I'm gone, ɾemember you're the one
And just because I fight don't mean that I never learned how to [C7]love

You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
So don't expect me not to [C7]fall
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got [Fm7]chains and [Bm]you [A7got [Fm7]wings
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But I tɾy

What's a girl to [C7]do when she's not stɾong
When everyone that holds my [A]hand
Gets cut from all [Em]the thorns
I used to [C7]put my [A]ear against the wall
To hear the screams, to [C7]hear the fall
More ɾeasons to [C7]escape it all

And it's not the answer but I can't carry on
I give my [A]best smile, my [A]last dime
But I'm always getting wrong
It's not 'cause I'm young or from a broken home
Maybe [Am]I just fight 'cause I don't know where I belong

You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
So don't expect me not to [C7]fall
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got [Fm7]chains and [Bm]you [A7got [Fm7]wings
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But I tɾy

Angels were never meant to [C7]fall
And you [A7were the loveliest of all
If I thought God could fix it
I'd pray for [Dm7]your forgiveness
But I've been cast down, thrown out
When I crossed to [C7]the other side

No devils don't fly!

You know devils don't fly (fly, fly)
So don't expect me not to [C7]fall
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But God we almost had it all
But I got [Fm7]chains and [Bm]you [A7got [Fm7]wings
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
Devils don't fly (fly, fly)
But I tɾy

But I tɾy
