Love In The First Degree

Key: G# Capo 1st Fret 1st Verse: G D I once thought of love as a prison, C G A place I didn't want to be, Am G So long ago, I made a decision Am D To be footloose and fancy-free. G D But you came and I was so tempted, C G To gamble on love just one time, Am G I never thought, I would get caught, Am D It seemed like the perfect crime. Chorus: C G Baby you left me defenseless, C G I've only got one plea, Am G Lock me away, inside of your love, Am D And throw away the key. C I'm guilty, D G Of love in the first degree. 2nd Verse: G D I thought it would be so simple, C G Like a thousand times before, Am G I'd take what I wanted, and just walk away, Am D But I never made it to the door. G D Now babe I'm not begging for mercy, C G Go ahead and throw the book at me, Am G If loving you's a crime, I know that I'm Am D As guilty as a man can be. (Repeat Chorus) C G Tag: Love in the first degree. (Alternate between Chorus and Tags and fade out) The greatest band of all time....Alabama!!!! Questions or Comments? Eric Huffman Str8Fan@prodigy.com
