Song: 	Criminal
Artist: Fiona Apple
Transcription by Jake Schneider

Since this song has no recognizable guitar stuff, I decided to make my
own arrangement for guitar.  Send comments/suggestions to:
jakester@centuryinter.net
There may be one discrepancy (I'm aware of it) in re: to the Cm
pentatonic bass groove being played and the guitar playing a C7 over top
of it.  I tried playing a Cm/Cm7 chord but the C7 sounded better to me.

CRIMINAL		          FIONA APPLE

[C minor pentatonic bass groove] x 8	Guitar: C7

I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can

Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and I want to
Suffer for my sins
I've come to you ?cause I need
Guidance to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin

What I need is a good defense
?cause I'm feelin' like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

Heaven help me for the way I am
save me from these evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand
But I keep livin' this day like the next one will never come

Oh help me but don't tell me to deny it
I've got to cleanse myself of all these lies ?til I'm good enough for
him
I've got a lot to lose and I'm bettin' high
So I'm beggin' you before it ends
Just tell me where to begin

chorus x1

[C minor pentatonic bass groove] x 4	Guitar: C7

Let me know the way before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I've got to make a play to make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know

chorus x2
