Brandy Clark - Stripes | Hear and Now | Country Now chords
Start Jamming...
Some of the first people that heard stripes heard it because they saw the video that that CMT and Leslie Fram
were
Kind enough to play but Becky fluke who directed and shot that video.
She was very adamant that that
That I not shoot him that there be some kind of a twist
Which I'm so glad that she insisted on that because about the time that video came out the whole Jodi Arias trial
Was going on and so I don't know that people would have really gone for a girl shooting any man at that point
We did see real prisoners and they would they would make the prisoners stand against the wall
When we would walk through and some of the girls that were in the video went out with prison guards
After that and I'm sure of inmates if they could have gotten their hands on them
You were lying there with nothing on but a goofy little grin and a platinum [Ab] blonde
I can't believe you do that on our [Bbm] bed
I got a pistol and I [G] got a bullet and a pissed-off finger just itching to pull it the only thing
Keeping me from [F] losing my head
[Db] Is I hate stripes
And [Bbm] orange ain't my color
And [Db] if I squeeze that trigger tonight
I'll [Ab] be wearing one or the other
[Bbm] It's no crime of passion worth a crime of [Gb] fashion the only thing saving your life
[Db] Is that I don't look [Ab] good in orange and [Bbm] I hate stripes
[Ab] whoa
[Bbm] whoa
[Ab] whoa
[Gm] Well, I could fall in love with a prison guard
I could sell cigarettes in the prison yard [Eb] don't think our time would be that hard on me
[F] I [Bb] could pick up trash on the side of the road, but I'd die if I saw someone I know [Ab] ain't the chance
It's a close that's stopping [Bbm] me.
[Ab] I hate [Db] stripes
And orange ain't [Bbm] my color
And if I [Db] squeeze that trigger tonight, I'll be [Ab] wearing one or the other
There's [Bb] no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
[Gb] The only thing saving your life
Is [Db] that I don't look good [Ab] in orange and I [Bbm] hate stripes
[Bb] Oh [Db] and one shot
Ain't worth [Bbm] a bad mug shot
God knows [Gb] I wouldn't be caught [Gb] holding up a number while the whole [Ab] town staring at the picture in the paper of me wearing [Bbm] stripes
[Gb]
[Db] [Ab]
There's [Bb] no crime of passion worth a crime of fashion.
[Gb] The only thing saving your life
[Db] That don't look [Ab] good in orange and I [Bbm] hate stripes
Orange ain't [Gb] my color and if [Db] I squeeze that trigger tonight, I'll be [Eb] wearing one or the other
[Bbm] There's no crime of passion worth a crime of [Gb] fashion.
The only thing saving your life
[Db] Is that I don't look good in orange and [Bbm] I hate stripes
[Ab] whoa Whoa
[Bbm] [Ab] [A] [Bbm]
[B] [Gb]
[B] [Gb] [B]
[Gb] [E] [B]
