         Verse 1:

         A            C                   D                  A

         All men have secrets and here is mine, so let it be known

             A                    C                         D              A         A

         For we have been through hell and high tide, I can surely rely on you ...

                     C                      D                    A

         And yet you start to recoil, heavy words are so lightly thrown

             A                 C          D                 A

         But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you

 

         Chorus:

         A        D                  E      G             A

         So, what difference does it make        Oh ho oh woh

                  D                  E      E

         So, what difference does it make?

         F#m      D                   F#m          D     

         It makes none,           But now you have gone

                 F#m             D          A      A

         And you must be looking very old tonight

 

         Verse 2:

                   C                  D             A

         The devil will find work for idle hands to do

           A                C                D                  A 

         I stole and then I lied, and why, because you asked me to

             A               C                             D            A

         But now you make me feel so ashamed, because I've only got two hands

               A                 C           D      A

         Well, I'm still fond of you, oh woh ho

 

         Chorus:

         A        D                  E      G             A

         Oh, it makes none,      But now you have gone

                  F#m             D               A      A

         And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight

 

         Verse 3:

                       C                  D             A

         Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do

           A                 C            D                  A

         I stole, and then I lied, just because you asked me to

             A                C                         D         A

         But now you know the truth about me, you won't see me anymore

               A                 C          D        A

          no more, no more apologies  

         F#m     D      F#m             D

         I'm too tired, I'm so sick and tired

                 F#m          D            A

         And I'm feeling very sick and ill today

             A                 C          D

         But I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh
