Devil Doesn't Bargain

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
                  Bm      G      D      A   A4
The devil doesn't bargain
 
 
[Verse 1]
     Bm                           G
It's useless, don't do this, it's hubris to try
     D                          A
He's ruthless, you knew this, I told you, didn't I?
     Bm                    G
He's abusive, elusive, the truth is he lies
  D                          A   A4
I know you don't want to let go
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm                      G
And just like before, I can see that you're sure
        D                          A (mute)
You can change him, but I know you won't
 
 
[Chorus]
                  Bm
The devil doesn't bargain
                      G
He'll only break your heart again
                   D
It isn't worth it, darling
                 A
He's never gonna change
                      Bm
He'll never be Prince Charming
                  G
He'll only do you harm again
                D
I don't mean to meddle
                      A
But the devil doesn't settle
                      Bm
No, the devil doesn't bargain
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
         G
Mm-mm-mm-mm
                  D
The devil doesn't bargain
         A   A4
Mm-mm-mm-mm
 
 
[Verse 2]
               Bm                      G
I'm not one to lecture, talk down to a friend
                D                      A
I don't mean to pressure, mean to condescend
      Bm                        G
But I just want what's best for you in the end
  D                          A   A4
I know you don't want to let go
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm                      G
And just like before, I can see that you're sure
        D                          A
You can change him, but I know you won't
 
 
[Chorus]
                  Bm
The devil doesn't bargain
                      G
He'll only break your heart again
                   D
It isn't worth it, darling
                 A
He's never gonna change
                      Bm
He'll never be Prince Charming
                  G
He'll only do you harm again
                D
I don't mean to meddle
                      A
But the devil doesn't settle
                      Bm
No, the devil doesn't bargain
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
         G
Mm-mm-mm-mm
                  D
The devil doesn't bargain
         A   A4
Mm-mm-mm-mm
 
 
[Bridge] (Palmed triplet chords)
Em                D           G           A
...And I know you think he'll change this time
Em                  D        G  A
...But I think that you will find
