E            A          E            D           E                 B7    E
i drove to the town and i found the street and the block where we once lived
i had to make my misery complete and see if i could take what life could give 
A                               D     A      E
i walked through the gate now rusted and old and just about to fall
E                A               D       A        E
the wind grew still and my blood ran cold and the hair on my neck began to crawl
A                                  D       A          E
theres shadows where the magic was and theres darkness all around
E            A                       D        A       E
now who can tell what the devil does when he walks on haunted ground

around the old place where my children had played there were factories, stores, and schools
there were shopping malls but behind these walls were the memories of this fool
i recall every lie you told me when you said i'm forever true
i heard my name whispered on the wind and my heart it broke in two

theres shadows where the magic was and theres darkness all around
now who can tell what the devil does when he walks on haunted ground

i walked up to the door like a million times before and i knew then that i had to leave
for it seemed to me that i heard a demon roar and something started to tuggin at my sleeve
when i saw someone a staring at me but i could not see a face
i knew right then what it had to be i could never leave this place

theres shadows where the magic was and theres darkness all around
now who can tell what the devil does when he walks on haunted ground

i went on through that door and right across that kitchen floor where i knew i'd find a drink
i'd hidden one there 20 long years before right up under the old kitchen sink
when i found that bottle i gave that cap a toss and i drank all that hot whiskey down
i knew right then i would sure pay the cost i would burn this damn place down

theres shadows where the magic was, as the flames they reach out for me
i dont give a damn what the devil does cause at last i am free

theres shadows where the magic was, as the flames they reach out for me
i dont give a damn what the devil does cause at last i am free
