Ive Changed My Plea To Guilty

a very sentimental piece by morissey about his loneliness , and how he breaks
life’s rules by being so .
there are already chords done by somebody else to this song , however they
contained slight inaccuracies , so i’ve tried to correct them .
this one is transcribed by myself for a piano , but you can of course easily adapt it .
* * for novices – G6 consists of the notes : G , B , D , E
* * gbm7b5 ( what a mouthfull! ) can be broken down into : G flat minor 7 , with A
flattened 5 . this equates to : F# , A , C , E . it’s essentially an Am chord with an
addEd F# at the beginning ) .

in 6/8

verse #2 :

C G6 Am
outside there is a pain .

gbm7b5 G6 C
emotional air raids exhausted my heart ,

G6 Am gbm7b5 G6
and it’s safer to be inside .

F G6 C C7
so , i’m changing my plea ,

F G6 C C7
and no one can dissuade me ,

F E Am
because freedom was wasted on me .

F gbm7b5 G6

verse #3 :

C G6 Am
something i have learned :

gbm7b5 G6 C
if there is one thing in life i’ve observed –

G6 Am gbm7b5 G6
it’s that everybody’s got somebody .

F G6 C C7
ooh no , not me ,

F G6 C C7
so i’ve changed my plea to guilty .

F E Am
and reason and freedom is a waste

F gbm7b5 G6
it’s a lot like life .
