Am     G     Am       G
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Am
You were lyin' there with nothing on
But a goofy little grin and a platinum blonde
    G                                Am
I can't believe you'd do that on our bed
I got a pistol and I got a bullet
And a pissed off finger just'a itchin' to pull it
    G                                     Am
The only thing keepin' me from losin' my head
 
[Chorus]

              C                       Am
Is I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
            C
And if I squeeze that trigger tonight 
            G
I'll be wearin' one or the other
            Am                        C
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
      F                     Am
The only thing saving your life
            C                G                   Am
Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes

  G     Am     G
Woah, woah, woah
 
Am
I could fall in love with the prison guard
I could sell cigarettes in the prison yard
       G                                    Am
Don't think hard time would be that hard on me
Am
I could pick up trash on the side of the road
But I'd die if I saw someone I know
              G                                    Am                 
Ain't the chains, it's the clothes that's stoppin' me
 
[Chorus]

              C                        Am
Is I hate stripes and orange ain't my color
            C
And if I squeeze that trigger tonight 
            G
I'll be wearin' one or the other
            Am                        C
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
      F                     Am
The only thing saving your life
            C                G                   Am
Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
 
[Bridge]

         C                          Am
Oh, and one shot ain't worth a bad mugshot
                     C
God knows I wouldn't be caught holdin' up a number
                       G
While the whole town's starin' at the picture
                              Am
In the paper of me wearin' stripes

[Solo] Am  F  C  G 

[Chorus]

            Am                        C
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion
      F                     Am
The only thing saving your life
            C                G                   Am
Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
                    F
And orange ain't my color
            C
And if I squeeze that trigger tonight 
          G
I'll be wearin' one or the other 
            Am                        C
There's no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion 
      F                     Am
The only thing savin' your life
            C                G                   Am
Is that I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes
