Born To Be Bad

A5                               D5
On the night I arrived my daddy said "Sakes Alive,
A5                                   E5
He's the meanest one that we've had yet!"
A5                  D5
Teethed on tin and weened on gin
      E5                  A5
I was nobody's teacher's pet
A5                              D5
I grew up rough and mean in my early teens
      A5                    E5
And I didn't want to go to school
         A5                D5
I called no man "Sir" and work was a dirty word
   E5                             A5
My biggest kick was breakin' the rules
A5                           D5
Now when you see me comin', get away
A5                           E5
The one's that didn't ain't around today
    A5                            D5
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had
    E5                          A5
I'm here to tell ya boys I was born to be bad
A5                D5
Born, born to be bad
      A5       E5 - E5    N/C/
I was born.          born to be bad
A5                                D5                  A5           E5
Now when I reached 21 I Knew the time had come that ole ramblin' itch
         A5                              D5
Breakin' little girls hearts I tore the world apart
  E5
A guitar-playin' son of a...


A5 - D5 - A5 - E5 - A5 X 2

D5
Born to be bad
                       A5
That's the story of my life
      D5                                            E5
Yeah, doin' things wrong is my way of doin' things right


A5                                D5
Now when I'm gray and old and my story's told
  A5                         E5
I know what the people will say
           A5
They'll be glad to see me go
        D5
But the little girls will know
      E5                A5
I was bad til my dyin' day
            A5              D5
So when you see me comin', get away
A5                           E5
The one's that didn't ain't around today
A5                                D5
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had
    E5                          A5
I'm here to tell ya boys I was born to be bad
A5                D5
Born, born to be bad
      A5     E5 E5             A5
I was born.      born to be bad


A5 - D5 - A5 - E5 - A5 X2

A5                                  D5
Now when I'm old and gray and I've had my day
  A5                         E5
I know what the people will do
           A5
They'll be glad to see me go
        D5
But the little girls will know
      E5                     A5
I was bad til the day I was through
            A5              D5
So when you see me comin', get away
    A5                       E5
The one's that didn't ain't around today
    A5                            D5
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had

A5                D5
Born, born to be bad
      A5    E5 E5               A5
I was born.     born to be bad X 2
