Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
Am G Am G
Who-o-a, who-o-a, who-o-a, who-o-a
[Verse 1]
Am
You were lyin' there with nothin' on
Am
but a goofy little grin and a platinum blonde.
G Am
I can't believe you'd do that on our bed.
Am
I got a pistol and I got a bullet
Am
and a pissed off finger just itchin' to pull it.
G Am
The only thing keepin' me from losing my head
[Chorus]
C Am
is I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
C G
and if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearin' one or the other.
Am
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
F
The only thing saving your life
C G Am
is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes.
G Am G
Who-o-a, who-o-a, who-o-a
[Verse 2]
Am
I could fall in love with a prison guard,
Am
I could sell cigarettes in the prison yard.
G Am
Don't think hard times will that hard on me.
Am
I could pick up trash on the side of the road
Am
but I'd die if I saw someone I know.
G Am
Ain't the chains - it's the clothes that's stoppin' me.
[Chorus]
C Am
Cuz I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
C G
and if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearing one or the other.
Am
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
F
The only thing saving your life
C G Am
is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes.
[Bridge]
C Am
Oh, and that one shot ain't worth a bad mug shot.
F (stop) F (stop)
God knows I wouldn't be caught holding up a number
G (stop) G (stop)
while the whole town's starin' at the picture in the paper
Am
of me wearin' stripes.
[Instrumental]
F C G
[Chorus]
Am
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
F
The only thing savin' your life
C G Am
is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
F
and orange ain't my color
C G
and if I squeeze that trigger tonight I'll be wearin' one or the other.
Am
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
F
The only thing saving your life
C G Am
is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes.
[Outro]
G Am G Am
Who-o-a, who-o-a, who-o-a, who-o-o-o-a
