The Soul Of O. V. Wright
 
(E[Am]ight men, four [Dm]women
L[F7]ord, that's the j[E7]ury of l[Am]ove)[E7]
Verse 1:
I d[Am]reamed that love was a crime
I was alone, so lonely and blue
You know why? Because ei[C]ght men and f[E7]our
[Am]women, L[F]ord
They f[Am]ound me g[Dm]uilty of l[Am]oving you (loving
[E7]you)
Verse 2:
As they were taking me away
You were taking, I saw you when you were taking the
witness stand
You know what? I heard the lawyer when he asked you, my
love
"Do you really love that man?"
Bridge:
It was e[Am]ight men and four women (guilty)
How could they [E7]be so blind (guilty)
[Am]How could they? I knew t[Dm]hey sat there
And c[F7]alled true l[E7]ove a c[Am]rime [E7] (this is what
killed me)
Verse 3:
But a tear rolled down my cheek
I felt so sorry for you
You know why? Because in my heart I knew, oh yes, baby I
knew
That they would find you guilty too
Spoken interlude:
J[Am]udge, your honor and to the jury
I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are
innocent
And true love is not a crime
Coda:
(L[F7]ord, that's the j[E7]ury of l[Am]ove)
Lord, that's the jury of love
A mean ju[F7]dge and a mean ju[E7]ry, oh, [Am]that's the jury
of love
(Lord, that's the jury of love)
(L[F7]ord, that's the j[E7]ury of l[Am]ove) (fade)
