[INTRO:] D  C  G  A  D   Gmaj7

[VERSE 1:]
D                                  Gmaj7
In this land of chance, do we know right from wrong
D         G                   D
Even at a glance, we know the road is long 
A/D                            D
We don't owe a single thing to anyone 
                             Gmaj7           D
Most of us do not believe in come-what-may 
              G                 D
Everything we fought for was in vain, they say 
A/D                                D
Even when called upon to throw our lives away


[CHORUS:]
             G               A              D      G
We have been captured by the thieves of the night
         D             A      D A
Held for ransom if you please 
D               C
Heaven help the Devil
       G            A            D      Gmaj7
May he have a few unpleasant memories


[VERSE 2:]
D                             Gmaj7
In these times of trial and uncertainty 
D                    G                 D
I have thought, what does this freedom mean to me 
   A/D                            D
Or is it just some long forgotten fantasy 
                                Gmaj7 
Our love for each other may not be explained 
D            G                      D
We live in a world where tears must fall like rain 
    A/D                                 D
But most of us don't wish to cause each other pain


[CHORUS:]
             G               A              D      G
We have been captured by the thieves of the night
         D             A      D A
Held for ransom if you please 
D               C
Heaven help the Devil
       G            A            D      Gmaj7   D   Gmaj7
May he have a few unpleasant memories


[VERSE 3:]
   D                        Gmaj7
To every unsung hero in the universe
   D                  G                   D
To those who roam the skies and those who roam the earth 
   A/D                             D
To all good men of reason may they never thirst 
                                      Gmaj7
We have wings to guide us through the timeless sea 
    D                 G                 D
And faith that will remain through all eternity 
A/D                         D
We try to be helpful to the ones in need


[CHORUS:]
                 G               A              D      G
Yet we have been captured by the thieves of the night 
         D             A      D A
Held for ransom if you please 
D               C
Heaven help the Devil
       G            A            D
May he have a few unpleasant memories
                C
Heaven help the Devil
       G            A            D 
May he have a few unpleasant memories
