Chords/Tab transcription by Rockcru

I know there are other tab versions of this, but I believe that the tab  archive ought
to show how the artist plays the song.  In order to gain a little more perspective, I
saw the videotape of Bruce playing this song.  There is no capo on  Bruce's guitar.
As much as I could see, the chord forms below  match those in the video.

Drop D tuning on both high and low E stings.  

 Chord Forms: 

    D     Dsus   D(alt)    G   G(alt1) G(alt2)     D/F# Em7    A5

Play the Dsus alternating with D in the introduction and in the verse

[Intro]

 D and Dsus


[Verse 1]

 D                         D and Dsus
 I got my finger on the trigger
                          G
 But I don't know who to trust
                       D      A5
 I look into your eyes
                           D and Dsus
 There's just devils and dust

 D                           D and Dsus
 Long, long way from home, Bobbie
                               G
 Home's a long, long way from us
                          D      A5
 Feel a dirty wind blowin'
                 D and Dsus     
 Devils and dust


[Chorus]

                      G(alt1)
 I got God on my side
                           D/F#
 And I'm just trying to survive
                           Em7
 But if what you do to survive
                          A5
 Kills the things you love
                        G(alt2)
 Fear's a powerful thing
                                      D/F#
 Can turn your heart black you can trust
                              G         A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                               D and Dsus 
 And fill it with devils and dust


[Verse 2]

                              D and Dsus
 Well I dreamed of you last night
                              G 
 In a field of blood and stone
                       D        A5
 The blood began to dry
                       D and Dsus
 The smell began to rise

 D                                   D and Dsus
 Well I dreamed of you last night, Bob
                           G
 In a field of mud and bone
                       D       A5
 Your blood began to dry
                       D and Dsus    
 The smell began to rise


[Chorus]

                         G(alt1)
 We've got God on our side
                          D/F#
 We're just trying to survive
                           Em7
 But if what you do to survive
                         A5
 Kills the things you love
                     G(alt2)
 Fear's a powerful thing
                                 D/F#
 Turn your heart black you can trust
                              G        A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with Devils and dust
                             G         A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with devils and dust


[Verse 3]

 D                          D and Dsus
 Now every woman and every man
                                 G
 They want to take a righteous stand
                          D          A5
 Find the love that God wills
                           D and Dsus
 And the faith that he commands

 D                             D and Dsus
 I've got my finger on the trigger
                               G
 Tonight faith just ain't enough
                         D         A5               
 And I look inside my heart
                            D and Dsus
 There's just devils and dust


[Chorus]

                         G(alt1)
 We've got God on our side
                          D/F#
 We're just trying to survive
                           Em7
 But if what you do to survive
                         A5
 Kills the things you love
                     G(alt2)
 Fear's a powerful thing
                                 D/F#
 Turn your heart black you can trust
                              G        A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with Devils and dust
                             G         A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with devils and dust


[Outro]

                           G (alt1)
 But I've got God on our side
                           D/F#
 And I'm just trying to survive
                           Em7
 But if what you do to survive
                        A5
 Kills the things you love
                       G(alt2)
 Fear's a dangerous thing
                                  D/F#
 Turn your heart black you can trust
                        G         A5
 Take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with devils and dust
                              G        A5
 It'll take your God filled soul
                           D and Dsus
 Fill it with devils and dust


 (Repeat verse 1 chord sequence twice during harmonica solo
