BAD - I SAID YES
Intro: C - G - Am - Fmaj7 (x2)
C G
When it's over they will say we two were bandits,
Am Fmaj7
They will document our exploits in the press,
C G
How we terrorized the ranches and the railroads,
Am Fmaj7
How we menaced all the sheriffs in the west,
C G
They will print our little pictures in the paper,
Am Fmaj7
With a list of all our crimes and our arrests,
C G
When it's over they will say we two were bandits,
Am Fmaj7
And history, as they say, is the rest - we were the best
C - G - Am - Fmaj7 (x2)
C G Am
I hear a choir of dislocated women singing dirges for their daughters
Fmaj7 C
Who had found themselves inside the county jail,
G Am
I can feel the precious metal of the barrel of your colt against my heart
Fmaj7 C
G
'Cause when we argued you would sometimes pull a gun on me,
Am Fmaj7
Then we'd think of something,
C G Am Fmaj7
It was the rage of the game you were playing me,
C G Am
I see this fire of all the things I'm losing spinning rubies from the saddlebag
Fmaj7 C
I think that means I may be losing you,
G Am
And I know that I could take this in my stride if you were riding at my side
Fmaj7 C
G
'Cause you'd be here and through the hoof-dust you would wink at me oh,
Am Fmaj7
Then you'd think of something,
C G Am Fmaj7
You were the brains of the gang and the bravery,
C G Am Fmaj7
And I am afraid of the man who is chasing me.
C G
I don't have a suggestion who these followers could be,
Am Fmaj7
But every time I turn around they're gaining on me,
C G
Lucy is exhausted, she's never seen the sea,
Am Fmaj7
And I know she'd be delighted by your company,
C G
Now she may not be the quickest horse that you will ever see,
Am Fmaj7
And she caught a sock of buckshot back in 1933,
C G
But she likes the smell of powder and she likes the smell of me,
Am Fmaj7
She likes the lick of leather on her one, two, three -
C G
Do you remember when we said we'd go to panama?
Am Fmaj7
Well that seems somewhat improbable somehow,
C G
Do you remember all the other things I'd promised you?
Am Fmaj7
They're becoming rather difficult now,
C G
This could be the song we said we'd write for you,
Am Fmaj7
I could be those friends you never had,
C G
'Cause there are many different kinds of criminal,
Am Fmaj7
And there are many different kinds of Bad,
N.C.
I don't know if I can make it back this time,
You have always been the faster rider than me (x2)
C G Am
I don't know if I can make it back this time,
Fmaj7
You have always been the faster rider than me (x 6)
