Raitt Bonnie

GUILTY- Bonnie Raitt

E       E7                 
Yes baby, I've been drinkin
A                      Am   D
Ya, I shouldn't come by I know
       E                 C#            C
But I found myself in trouble, darlin'
        B                  E  A  E  B7
And I had no place else to go

E   E7  
Got some whiskey from a bottle
           A       Am         D
Got some cocaine from a friend
       E               C#       C
And I had to keep on movin' babe
             B                   E  A  E E7
Till' I was back in your arms again

 








A               Am
But I'm guilty, yes I'm guilty
              E              B         E  (bass F# G# B)  
And I'll be guilty all the rest of my life
             A      Am                       D
How come I never do, what I'm supposed to do
F#                                   B
Nothing I try to do ever turns out right

E                 E7              A
You know how it is with me baby,
                            Am    D
You know I just can't stand myself
             E              C#     C
It takes a whole lot of medicine
              B                      E   A  E
For me to pretend that I'm somebody else
