Guitar chords with lyrics

Key: 'Am'

Intro:

 Am  Em  D  Am




Am                       Em
He is a hustler, he's no good at all
D                     Am
He is a loser, he's a bum-bum-bum-bum
Am                       Em
He lies, he fluffs, he's unreliable
D                       Am
He's is a sucker with a gun-gun-gun-gun

Am
I know you told me I should stay away
Em
I know you said he's just a dog astray-ay
Am
He is a rebel with a tained heart
D
And even I know this ain't smart

Chorus:

     Am                        Em
But, mama
I'm in love with a criminal
G                D          Am
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Am                              Em
Mamma, please don't cry
I will be all right
D                        Am
All reason aside
I just can't deny
I love that guy

Am
He is a villain by the devil's law
D
He is a killer just for fun-fun-fun-fun
Am
That man's a snitch, he's unpredictable
D
He's got no punches, he got none-none-none-none
Am       Em
Oh-oh I kno-ow
D                    Am
Should've let go, but no
       Am                       Em
'Cause he's a rebel with a tained heart
D
And even I know this ain't smart

Chorus:

     Am                        Em
But, mama
I'm in love with a criminal
D                          Am
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Am                              Em
Mamma, please don't cry
I will be all right
D                        Am
All reason aside
I just can't deny
I love that guy

F               Am
And he's got my name
G               Am
Tatooed on his arm , his lucky charm
F               Am
So I guess it's okay
            G
He's with me
F                   Am
And we hear people talk (people talk)
G              Am
Trying to make remarks, keep us apart
F                  Am
But I don't even hear
            G
I don't care

(Am  Em  D  Am)

Chorus:

     Am                        Em
But, mama
I'm in love with a criminal
D                           Am
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Am                              Em
Mamma, please don't cry
I will be all right
D                        Am
All reason aside
I just can't deny

I love that guy

     Am                        Em
But, mama
I'm in love with a criminal
D                          Am
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Am                              Em
Mamma, please don't cry
I will be all right
D          D             Am
All reason aside
I just can't deny

I love that guy
