Makin Deals

Written by: Thomas J Rilling

Sometime in 1999

 

 

Am      C                    G

Makin deals with the devil

Am     C                    G

Makin deals with the boss

Am      C                    G

Makin deals with the martyr

Am      C        G

Burnin on the cross

 

Makin deals with the beggars

Makin deals with a thief

Makin deals with the preacherman

Cast out his beliefs

(chorus)

D                          E

But it all seems unfinished

D                                     E

Yet ther’s nothing left to do

D                               E

And I can’t sign the dotted line

D                                 E

Till I make a deal with you

 

Am, C, G…………..E……..Am

 

Makin deals with the angels

Makin deals with my friends

Makin deals with the criminal

Burnin candles at both ends

Makin deals with the government

Takin everything from me

Makin deals with the spirits

Who’ve come to set me free
