Devils & Dust (acoustic) Lyrics

I got my finger on the trigger
But I don't know who to trust
When I look into your eyes
There's just devils and dust
We're a long, long way from home, Bobbie
Home's a long, long way from us
I feel a dirty wind blowing
Devils and dust
I got God on my side
I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
(And) fill it with devils and dust

Well I dreamed of you last night (Bobbie)
In a field of blood and stone
(The) blood began to dry
(The) smell began to rise
(Well) I dreamed of you last night (Bobbie)
In a field of mud and bone
(And the) blood began to dry
(The) smell began to rise
We've got God on our side
We're just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing (babe)
(It'll) turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

[Harmonica Solo]

Now every woman and every man
(They) want to take a righteous stand
Find the love that God wills
And the faith that He commands
I've got my finger on the trigger
(And) tonight faith just ain't enough
When I look inside my heart
There's just devils and dust
(Well) I've got God on my side
(And) I'm just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a dangerous thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust

It'll take your God filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
