[Verse 1]
            Em
There was a bad boy in the school yard
           Em
who waited on you every day
            G
Seemed like every time you turned around
       A
He was standing in your way
         Em
Well, he broke your glasses

the girls all laughed as he
Em
pushed you to the floor
          G
Until you stood up one day knowing
             A
you couldn't stand it anymore
         Bm                                  Asus2
and your gentle hand was finally clenched in rage
             Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
and you were face to face

[Chorus]
G       A             Em
Face to face with the devil that you been dreading
G      A   Em
Eye to eye finally has arrived
    G         A            Em
but bad as it was well now brother wasn't it better
G                Bm   A  Em
Dealing with him face to face

G A

[Verse 2]
     Em
Your date showed up with flowers and you
Em
thought your prayers had come
         G                      A
but with every passing hour you watched it come undone
         Em
then the night exploded

you begged him no
       Em
but he forever changed your life
       G
Now he waits the judge and jury
A
thinking you'll break down inside
           Bm                           Asus2
and with a finger you can put his fists away
             Dsus2 A7sus2 Em   Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
and you were face to face

[Chorus]
G       A             Em
Face to face with the devil that you been dreading
G      A   Em
Eye to eye finally has arrived
    G         A             Em
but bad as it was well now  sister wasn't it better
G                Bm   A  Em
Dealing with him face to face

[Bridge]
            G
Cause it'll never go away
           Bm
until the fear that you are running from
   A       Em
is finally embraced

[Verse 3]
Em
Driving by the graveyard
     Em
on a wicked winter's eve
           G
and you're wondering why a man of faith
   A
is whistling nervously
         Em
Then you stop the car and
                              Em
you hold your heart cause you finally realize
          G
Hell, the devil ain't in the darkness
     A
he's riding around inside
         Bm                              Asus2
and with folded hands you truly start to pray
             Dsus2 A7sus2 Em    Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
cause you're face to face

[Chorus]
G       A             Em
Face to face with the devil that you been dreading
G      A   Em
Eye to eye finally has arrived
    G         A            Em
but bad as it was well now brother wasn't it better
G                Bm   A  Em
Dealing with him face to face

[Bridge]
            G
Cause it'll never go away
           Bm
until the fear that you are running from
   A       Em       Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
is finally embraced face to face

[Outro]
Em   G A   Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
                          Face to face
Em   G A   Dsus2 A7sus2 Em

Em   G A   Dsus2 A7sus2 Em
