I knew him when, he held his head up high and there

was love and laughter in his eyes.

And then one day the devil's doll came by, she tempted

him and he fell.
(Verse 2)

I knew him when, he wouldn't stay away from home all
Eb Ab Eb
night and drink til break of day.
Bb Ab
But devil doll's all have a certain way of changing

heaven to hell.
(Bridge)

She took his heart that never was untrue and taught him
Bb Eb
things the devil taught her, too.

Til he became someone I never knew who lied and cheated
Bb
and left me.
(Verse 3)
Eb Ab Eb
But now and then I see him passing by in shabby clothes
Ab Eb Bb
and lost and empty eyes with feel of hate for her that
never dies.
Ab Eb Ab Eb Bb Eb
The devil's doll was she, I knew him when he loved me.
