to [email protected]. This is a song I always wanted to learn but never found the
chords or was able to translate the original version on piano by Morrissey. However I
was able to translate an almost identical (Chord wise) acoustic version by Colin Meloy
on "Colin Meloy Sings Morrissey." I found help with lyrics from "It May All End Tomorrow"

C/E G6 Am/E Gb G6 (2X)
Verse 1:
C/E G6 Am/E Gb G6 I'm standing in the dock. With my innocent hand on my heart. F G6 C/E C7/E F G6 C C7/E I've changed my plea. I've changed my plea to guilty. F E Am/E F Gb G6 Because freedom is wasted on me. See how your rules spoil the game?
Verse 2:
C/E G6 Am/E Gb G6 C/E Outside there is a pain. Emotional air raids exhausted my heart, G6 Am/E Gb G6 F G6 C/E C7/E and it's safer to be inside. So, I'm changing my plea, F G6 C/E C7/E F E Am/E and no one can dissuade me. Because freedom was wasted on me. F Gb G6 See how your rules spoil the game?
Verse 3:
C/E G6 Am/E Gb G6 Something I have learned, if there is one thing in life I've observed, C/E G6 Am/E Gb G6 F G6 C/E C7/E it's that everybody's got somebody. Ooh no, not me. F G6 C/E C7/E F E Am/E So I've changed my plea to guilty. And reason and freedom is a waste. F Gb G6 C/E It's a lot like life.
