Capo 4 or 5
[Intro]
GBring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
CHere it's never ending, can't remember when it started
GPass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty enough room in jail
[Chorus]
CIf being wrong's a crime, I'm serving forever
AmIf being strong's your kind, then I need help here with tGhis feather
CIf being afraid is a crime, we hang side by Amside
At the Gswingin' party down the Cline
[Verse]
GPound the prairie pavement, losing proposition
CQuitting school and going to work and never going fishing
GWater all around, I never learned how to swim now
[Chorus]
CIf being wrong's a crime, I'm serving forever
AmIf being strong's your kind, then I need help here with tGhis feather
CIf being afraid is a crime, we hang side by Amside
At the Gswingin' party down the Cline
At the Gswingin' party down the Cline
[Intro] (repeated)
GBring your own lampshade, somewhere there's a party
CHere it's never ending, can't remember when it started
GPass around the lampshade, there'll be plenty enough room in jail
[Chorus]
CIf being wrong's a crime, I'm serving forever
AmIf being strong is what you want, then I need help here with tGhis feather
CIf being afraid is a crime, we hang side by Amside
At the Gswingin' party down the Cline
