Its Not The Crime

C  G  C  D7

G
I broke the law last night
           A
Commited a criminal and sexual act
           Am
She was on top in this state
             D7     G
That's an immediate pop
G
And though I didn't get caught
             A
I know in my mind I commited no crime
              Am
Still by some fluke
           D       G     D  G
I might be serving time, Oh No!!
[Chorus A]
C
It's not the crime
G
And it's not the thought
C                  D7
It's not the deed
N.C.                    G
It's if you get caught

G
I got some friends
                 A
Who like to stay high
      Am
Think of, the tax potential
   D      G             D
If it was legal to buy
G
But instead the heat is forced
   A
To bust on victimless crimes
Am
It's a low class bust
    D           G      D   G
For nickels and dimes, Oh, Oh...
[Chorus A]
C
It's not the crime
G
And it's not the thought
C                  D7
It's not the deed
N.C.                   G
It's if you get caught

G
Think of all them powerful cats
    A
And how they got that way
           Am
Cause they sure the hell would not be there
    D       G
Without the payoff game that's played
G
Think of what you could do
          A
If it was you that was in their shoes
Am
You either play the game
        D   G     D   G
Or else you lose, bad news
[Chorus B]
C
It's not who's sold
G
It's not who's bought
C                          D7
And it's not the kickbacks
N.C.                   G
It's if you get caught
[Chorus A]
C
It's not the crime
G
And it's not the thought
C                  D7
It's not the deed
N.C.                    G
It's if you get caught
