[Verse]
D                                                           Bm       A
There's blood in my mouth 'cause I've been biting my tongue all week
          G                                      D
I keep on talkin' trash but I never say anything

D
And the talkin' leads to touchin'
                A
And the touchin' leads to sex
     G                           D   A
And then there is no mystery left

D                Em
And it's bad news
      D    A
Baby, I'm bad news
     Gbm  G                           D
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news

A D A G D A

D                                             A
I know I'm alone if I'm with or without you
         G                                                D
But just bein' around you offers me another form of relief

                               A
When the loneliness leads to bad dreams

And the bad dreams lead me to callin' you
       G                        D      A  D
And I call you and say "C'MERE!"

And it's bad news
Em    Gbm       A
Baby, I'm bad news
         G                             D    A
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news
         D
And it's bad news
               A
Baby, it's bad news
D    Gbm      G                       D
It's just bad news, bad news, bad news

                   G  Gbm Bm    A
'Cause you're just damage control
      G   Gbm  Bm           A         D    Dbm  G  D
For a walking corpse like me - like you
                   Dbm              G  D
'Cause we'll all be portions for foxes
                 Dbm             G   Bm   Gbm   Em D Gbm Em D
Yeah we'll all be portions for foxes

There's a pretty young thing in front of you
               A
And she's real pretty and she's real into you
               G                        D
And then she's sleepin' inside of you

And the talkin' leads to touchin'
            A
Then touchin' leads to sex
         G                       D   Em
And then there is no mystery left

D
And it's bad news
Em D     A
I don't blame you
              G                       D
I do the same thing, I get lonely too

And you're bad news
Em         D          Gbm      A
My friends tell me to leave you
     Gbm          G                     D      A
That you're bad news, bad news, bad news

     D
That you're bad news
                 Bm   A
Baby, you're bad news
             D
And you're bad news
                 Bm   A
Baby, you're bad news
             D
And you're bad news
                    Bm G  A
I don't care I like you
             D
And you're bad news
                    G
I don't care I like you
     D
I like you
