Tell me where did they lay you down?

Where did they lay you down?
      A                        D       D7

Did the Devil really buy your soul?
         A                       D/A
Did he teach you how to play and take your soul away?

Did the Devil really buy your soul?
         A            E        A

[Verse 1]
     D                                A
The heat was rising to the Delta haze
         D/A                                A
And your fate was sealed when you saw her face
 F              C
Making love all afternoon
      G            D
That woman put a spell on you
A
Oh yeah
D                                      A
Saturday night at the Three Points Inn
      D                                  A
You drank the whiskey with the poison in
         F                 C
Cause a jealous guy had a girl to lose
G                  D
The last time you played the blues
A
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Oo, going down to the crossroads tonight

Around midnight

I'll be looking for you
                       G
Oo, going down to the crossroads tonight

I know it'll be alright

If I listen to you
