 Key: G#    
  
  
  
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
