 K.Flay - Bad Things
=====================
No capo
[Intro]
C Am Em
C Am Em
[Verse 1]
  CDrink til I'm dead, toast to my Amlife
  Forget about it all in the proEmcess
  Holding my breath, cold for the night
  Difficult to know what the cost is
  CCall it what you want
  Tell me that I'm Amfucked up
  Tell me that I'm wrong, that I'm rigEmht
  Tell me that I lost touch
  Tell me that I'm like him
  Tell me that I'm down for the fight
  CWould anybody care if I woke up
  AmThought a new day might feel diffeEmrent
  Everyone's stripped down, coked up
  Thought it might be real, but it isn't
  CMy mind it goes to the Amdarkest places
  I've got so Emmuch to love, sometimes I fucking hate it
[Chorus]
  CFirst I felt faded, then it got loud
  AmNext I was wasted, then I blacked out
  EmSaid damn, gotta get sober
  But it always starts right over
  CFirst I felt faded, then it got loud
  AmNext I was wasted, then I blacked out
  EmNot who I seem, I mean like
  I've been doing Cbad things, bad Amthings, Emyeah
  I've been having Cbad dreams, bad Amdreams, Emyeah
[Verse 2]
  CScared that I'll fail, knees in the Amdirt
  Calling up somebody that I don't Emlove
  Weaving all my sad tales, even if it hurts
  See the beast well it always seems to show up
  CCall it what you want
  Tell me that I'm Amworthless
  Tell me that I'm hype, that I'll blow Emup
  Tell me I'm a fucked up person
  Tell me every night that I'm spending on a sofa
  CLooking way back in the arcAmhives, locate the link
  EmCause I went straight from the hard times
  To spitting in a kitchen sink
  CMy mind it goes to the Amdarkest places
  I've got so Emmuch to love, sometimes I fucking hate it
[Chorus]
  CFirst I felt faded, then it got loud
  AmNext I was wasted, then I blacked out
  EmSaid damn, gotta get sober
  But it always starts right over
  CFirst I felt faded, then it got loud
  AmNext I was wasted, then I blacked out
  EmNot who I seem, I mean like
  I've been doing Cbad things, bad Amthings, Emyeah
  I've been having Cbad dreams, bad Amdreams, Emyeah
  I've been doing Cbad things, bad Amthings, Emyeah
  I've been having Cbad dreams, bad Amdreams, Emyeah
[Interlude]
C Am Em
[Verse 3]
 CWish I could steal every moment that I Amloved
 Keep it in a safe place
 Cause I can’t Emdeal with the stress of the lifestyle
 Or the way you’re looking in my face
 And I wanna get aCway from it all
 But I’m drawn right Amback, moth to the flame
 Everything’s Embetter than it’s ever been but I’m worse for the wear
 Yeah it’s hard to explain
 I want a Cnew name and a Amlittle bit of something that I Emain’t got
 I want it Ctwo ways, like to Amkill all of my pain with the Emsame shot
 I’ll be aClone forever in mAmy head
 EmDot my I’s 'til they fill me out
 I’ll be aClone forever in mAmy bed
 With a Emtwisted smile and a filthy mouth
[Outro]
I mean like
I've been doing Cbad things, bad Amthings, Emyeah
I've been having Cbad dreams, bad Amdreams, Emyeah
I've been doing Cbad things, bad Amthings, Emyeah
I've been having Cbad dreams, bad Amdreams, Emyeah
C Am Em

K.Flay - Bad Things

=====================

No capo

[Intro]

C Am Em

[Verse 1]

C Am

Drink til I'm dead, toast to my life

Forget about it all in the process

Holding my breath, cold for the night

Difficult to know what the cost is

Call it what you want

Tell me that I'm fucked up

Tell me that I'm wrong, that I'm right

Tell me that I lost touch

Tell me that I'm like him

Tell me that I'm down for the fight

Would anybody care if I woke up

Am Em

Thought a new day might feel different

Everyone's stripped down, coked up

Thought it might be real, but it isn't

C Am

My mind it goes to the darkest places

I've got so much to love, sometimes I fucking hate it

[Chorus]

First I felt faded, then it got loud

Next I was wasted, then I blacked out

Said damn, gotta get sober

But it always starts right over

First I felt faded, then it got loud

Next I was wasted, then I blacked out

Not who I seem, I mean like

C Am Em

I've been doing bad things, bad things, yeah

C Am Em

I've been having bad dreams, bad dreams, yeah

[Verse 2]

C Am

Scared that I'll fail, knees in the dirt

Calling up somebody that I don't love

Weaving all my sad tales, even if it hurts

See the beast well it always seems to show up

Call it what you want

Tell me that I'm worthless

Tell me that I'm hype, that I'll blow up

Tell me I'm a fucked up person

Tell me every night that I'm spending on a sofa

C Am

Looking way back in the archives, locate the link

Cause I went straight from the hard times

To spitting in a kitchen sink

C Am

My mind it goes to the darkest places

I've got so much to love, sometimes I fucking hate it

[Chorus]

First I felt faded, then it got loud

Next I was wasted, then I blacked out

Said damn, gotta get sober

But it always starts right over

First I felt faded, then it got loud

Next I was wasted, then I blacked out

Not who I seem, I mean like

C Am Em

I've been doing bad things, bad things, yeah

C Am Em

I've been having bad dreams, bad dreams, yeah

C Am Em

I've been doing bad things, bad things, yeah

C Am Em

I've been having bad dreams, bad dreams, yeah

[Interlude]

C Am Em

[Verse 3]

C Am

Wish I could steal every moment that I loved

Keep it in a safe place

Cause I can’t deal with the stress of the lifestyle

Or the way you’re looking in my face

And I wanna get away from it all

But I’m drawn right back, moth to the flame

Everything’s better than it’s ever been but I’m worse for the wear

Yeah it’s hard to explain

C Am Em

I want a new name and a little bit of something that I ain’t got

C Am Em

I want it two ways, like to kill all of my pain with the same shot

C Am

I’ll be alone forever in my head

Dot my I’s 'til they fill me out

C Am

I’ll be alone forever in my bed

With a twisted smile and a filthy mouth

[Outro]

I mean like

C Am Em

I've been doing bad things, bad things, yeah

C Am Em

I've been having bad dreams, bad dreams, yeah

C Am Em

I've been doing bad things, bad things, yeah

C Am Em

I've been having bad dreams, bad dreams, yeah

C Am Em
