[Verse 1]
Am I've been a bad, badF7 girl

Am And it's a sad, sadF7 world
Am When a girl will break a boy F7just because she can
[Pre-Chorus]
C Don't you Bbtell me to denyF7 it
I've done wrongC and I want to Bbsuffer for myAm sins
C I've come to youBb 'cause I need Ab7guidance to be true G
And I just F7don't know where I can begin Ab7
Ooh
[Chorus]
F7What I need is a Cm7good defense
'Cause I'm F7feelin' like a crimiCm7nal
And I F7need to be redeemed
To the oneCm7 I've sinned against Bb
Because he's Ab7all I eGver knew of F7love
[Verse 2]
Am Heaven help me for the F7way I am
AmSave me from these evil deeds beF7fore I get them done
Am I know tomorrow brings the F7consequence at hand
But AmI keep livin' this day like the F7next will never come
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Chelp me, but don't Bbtell me to denyF7 it
I've got to cleanseC myself of allBb these lies
'til I'm Amgood enough for him

BeF7fore it ends just tell me where to beAb7gin
Ooh
