Guilty - Randy Newman

G D G

G G7
Yes baby, I've been drinking
C C7 Cm7
And I shouldn't come here, no more
G7 Em7
But I found myself in trouble, darling
D7 G D G
And I had nowhere else to go

Got some whisky from a barman


Got some cocaine from a friend
I just had to keep on walking, baby
'Till I was back in your arms again

G7 C
I'm guilty
C7 Cm7
Yes, I'm guilty
G7 D G7 Am7
And I'll be guilty for the rest of my life
C7 Cm7
Why can't I ever do, what I'm supposed to do?
A A7 D
Why can nothing, nothing ever turn out right?

You know, you know how it is, baby


You know, I can't take care of myself
And it takes a whole lot of medicine
For me to pretend that I'm somebody else
