I tabbed this to a video of him live on youtube where he played it
with his guitar tuned astep down. If you play it to the cd
version it would just be standard tuning, but I like the live one.

Intro
[C#/Dbm7] [F#/Gbm7] [B7]
[C#/Dbm7]I threw a bottle in the air and it smashed into a
[A7]thousand pieces on the concrete street,
[B7]where the children play in bare feet
(C#/Dbm7, F#Gbm7, B7)
[C#/Dbm7]We ran as fast as we could, cause I might have woke the neighborhood
[A7]Oh I don?t feel too good
[B7]no I don?t feel too good at all
(C#/Dbm7, F#Gbm7, B7)
[A7]Cause when the sun comes up
[B7]and the children wake, get on the street
[A7]to play, ?ll be the one
[B7]to blame
(Chorus)
[F#/Gbm7] I?m a cri[C#/Dbm7]minal, I?m a crim[B7]inal[A7]
[C#/Dbm7] It didn?t last too long, no I passed out, woke up and the guilt was gone
[A7]Without a care I walk down the stairs,
[B7]into the kitchen eat my breakfast there
(C#/Dbm7, F#Gbm7, B7)
[A7]Turn on the television screen Emergency
[B7]News Team
[A7]little girl crying on the street saying
[B7]?glass made my feet bleed"
[A7]Oh tell me what am I gonna do
[B7]I?m for sure done
[A7]What am I gonna do,
[B7] I have no choice but to run
(Chorus)
[F#/Gbm7] [C#m7] [B7] [A7]
(Bridge)
[G#/Ab7] Change my
[A7]name and move to Mexico
[B7]Dye my hair red and get surgery on my
[A7]nose buy a small condo,
[B7]stay low in Mexico
[A7]Don?t it sound so sweet,
[B7]get a wife and raise a family
[A7] Start my own limousine company
[B7] Stay low in Mexico
It never snows in Mexico
(Chorus)
