Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Even though this song has many different covers, Bob Seger really did a good job on this one.
It doesn't have the strict country feel. This one has a classic rock/road tune kind of feel.
I think the organ/keyboard in the back adds Seger's signature to this song.

Song:
G
'Bout the time my daddy left to fight the big war
G D
Saw my first pistol in a general store
D
In a general store, when I was thirteen
D G
Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen
G
So I asked if I could have one someday when I grew up
D
Mama dropped a dozen eggs she really blew up
D
She really blew up, she didn't understand
D G
Mama said the pistol was the devil's right hand
Chorus:
C
The devil's right hand
G C G
The devil's right hand
D G
Mama said the pistol was the devil's right hand.
G
My very first pistol was a cap and ball colt.
G D
Shoot as fast as lightnin' but it loads a might slow.
D
Loads a might slow. And soon I found out it'll
D G
Get you into trouble,but it can't get you out.
G
Bought a year later bought got a colt 45.
G D
Called a peace maker, but I never knew why.
D
I never knew why, I didn't understand.
D G
Mama said the pistol was the devil's right hand.
C
The devil's right hand
G C G
The devil's right hand

*Interlude*
G
Got into a card game in a crumbling town
G D
Caught a miner cheating so I shot the dog down
D
Shot the dog down, watched the man fall
D G
Never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw
G
The trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
G D
Asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said
D
Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
D G
Nothing touched the pistol but the devil's right hand
C
The devil's right hand
G C G
The devil's right hand
D G
Nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand
C
The devil's right hand
G C G
The devil's right hand
