Don't Play Cards With Satan - Daniel Johnston
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Christian Demmings
Email: cdemmings@hotmail.com
Tuning: Daniel Johnston signature tuning; or some crazy, off-version of Standard. If
like to replicate the live version off the 1990 album, turn all your keys a 1/4 turn in
directions and punch your guitar, rather than strumming it. He seems to play it
every performance.
This tab is how I play it. On the G and C chords I'm really only strumming the E, A, and
strings, and picking the G string each time. Satan!
Chords Used:
e|-[G]3-[C]0-[A]0-|
B|-3-1-2-|

[G]Don't play cards with Satan
He'll [C]deal you an awful [G]hand
[G]Don't play cards with Satan
He'll [C]deal you an awful [G]hand
Did I [A]ever stop and tell you I [G]am a [C]desperate [G]man?
I [G]thought I saw a bluebird [C]sitting on a [G]post
[A]Shiver down my spine
[G]I thought it was the [C]Holy [G]Ghost
[G]I heard the word before
And I [C]knew that it was [G]good
Somebody oughta do like the Good Book should
I [G]heard the voice of Satan [C]crying in the [G]woods
I [A]saw my own heart laying [G]black [C]with [G]blood
[G]Don't play cards with Satan
He'll [C]deal you an awful [G]hand
Please believe me
[A]Did I ever stop and tell you I [G]am a d[C]esperate [G]man?
[G]A [C]desperate [G]man
Satan!
