Sympathy For The Devil Lyrics & Chords By Widespread Panic

LyricsView Chords

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for many long years
Stole many a mans soul and faith
Was round when jesus christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
and I Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around st. petersburg
When I noticed it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a generals rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
and I hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game,
oh nooI watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
shouted out,
Who killed the kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
cause what's buzzin you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads as tails
call me lucifer
Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
please Have a little courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what's troubling you
Is the nature of my game
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
