Am
Not guilty
B7Em
For getting in your way
B7E E+ E7
While you're trying to steal the day
Am
Not guilty
B7Em
And I'm not here for the rest
B7EmEm/D
I'm not trying to steal your vest.
EE7
I am not trying to be smart
Am7/G
I only want what I can get
Em7Em6
I'm really sorry for your ageing head
Em Em7+
But like you heard me said
Am
Not guilty.
B7Em
No use handing me a writ
B7EmEm/D
While I'm trying to do my bit.
EE7
I don't expect to take your heart
Am7/G
I only want what I can get
Em7Em6
I'm really sorry that you're underfed
Em Em7+
But like you heard me said
Am
Not guilty.
Instrumental:
(Play Verse 2 Chords)
Am
Not guilty
B7Em
For looking like a freak
B7E E+ E7
Making friends with every Sikh
Am
Not guilty
B7Em
For leading you astray
B7EmEm/D
On the road to Mandalay.
EE7
I won't upset the apple cart
Am7/G
I only want what I can get
N.CEm7Em6
I'm really sorry that you've been misled
Em Em7+
But like you heard me said
Am
Not guilty.
