Version 1------------------------------------------------------------- Devils & Dust - Bruce Springsteen ------------------------------------------------------------- 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 D--0-----0-------0--------0-----0--------0---------0-----0-----x---| B--3-----3-------3--------0-----3--------3---------3-----0-----x---| G--0-----0-------2--------0-----0--------0---------2-----0-----2---| D--4-----5-------0--------0-----0--------0---------0-----0-----2---| A--5-----5-------0--------2-----5--------2---------0-----2-----0---| D--0-----0-------0--------0-----5--------0---------4-----2-----x---| Play the Dsus alternating with D in the introduction and in the verse breaks.

The video shows Bruce using the D(alt) chord form as the concluding chord).
