The following are the chords and lyrics for a song from one of my favorite
songwriters. Although the music is simple, the lyrics are profound.
"The Criminal Under My Own Hat" by T-Bone Burnett
----------------------------------------------------------------------
F#m E
I've seen a lot of criminals
F#m E
I've seen a lot of crimes
F#m E
Doing a lot of evil deeds
F#m E
Doing a lot of time
F#m E
We speak of these men as aliens
F#m E
>From some forbidden race
F#m E
We speak of these men as animals
F#m E
We will lock in a cage
INSTRUMENTAL (same alternating chords)
F#m E
But there's one man I must arrest
F#m E
I must interrogate
F#m E
One man that I must make confess
F#m E
Then rehabilitate
F#m E
There is no other I can blame
F#m E
No other I can judge
F#m E
No other I can cast in shame
F#m E
Then require blood
INSTRUMENTAL (same alternating chords)


Bridge:
E
I see him in the shadows down the hall
E
I see him in the plaster on the wall
F#m E
There is no crime he cannot commit
F#m E
No murder too complex
F#m E
His heart is filled with larceny
F#m E
And violence and sex
F#m E
His heart is filled with envy
F#m E
And revenge and greed
F#m E
His heart is filled with nothing
F#m E
His heart is filled with need
F#m E
He' s capable of anything
F#m E
Of any vicious act
F#m E
This criminal is dangerous
F#m E
The criminal under my own hat.
