In the acoustic version, he plays it with a capo on 3rd fret and slightly
different chords, I've included an example at the bottom.
Intro:
[Cm] [Gm] [Cm] [D] [Gm]
Verse:
[Gm]I swallow my s[Eb]pit and I swallow my [Bb]pride[D]
[Gm]I'm trying to [Eb]eat my shadow in the d[Bb]aytim[D]e
[Gm]Cause when the night does f[Eb]all
[Bb]All my troubles don't [Cm]seem so small
These i[Bb]dle hands[D] can do the devil's[Gm] work
[Gm]I lie to my[Eb]self and I tell you the [Bb]truth[D]
[Gm]I've broken every [Eb]promise that I've [Bb]made to you oh[D]h
[Gm]But now the curtain is t[Eb]orn
[Bb]It's the calm be[Cm]fore the storm

These i[Bb]dle hands[D] will do the devil's[Gm] work
Oh these idle [Cm]hands will do the devil's [Gm]work
Oh these idle [Cm]hands[D] will do the devil's [Cm]work[Gm] [Cm] [D] [Gm]
