Verse 1:
Dm
The Devil went down to Georgia
Dm
He was lookin' for a soul to steal
Dm
He was in a bind ’cause he was way behind. He was willing to make a deal
Dm
When he came upon this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
Dm
And the Devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said "Boy, let me tell you what."
Dm
"I guess you didn’t know it, but I'm a fiddle player, too
Dm
And if you'd care to take a dare I'll make a bet with you
Dm
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the Devil his due
Dm
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul 'cause I think I'm better than you."

Dm
The boy said, "My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin
Dm
But I’ll take your bet, and you’re gonna regret, 'cause I’m the best there's ever been."
Chorus:
DmC
Johnny, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
GmDm
'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards
Gm
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold
A
But if you lose the devil gets your soul

The Devil opened up his case and he said, "I’ll start this show."
Dm
And fire flew from his fingertips as he rosined up his bow
Dm
And he pulled the bow across the strings and it made an evil hiss

And a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this:

When the Devil finished, Johnny said, "Well, you're pretty good ol' son
Dm
But sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done."

The Devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat
Dm
And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet
