Dm  C
Last nDmight I was on the selfish side of lonely when I called you

But we both know why we ended There was nothing lDmeft to say
So I guess I'll tCake the blame

When the trBbuth is that I loved you but you waited too lCong to fight
Yours ain't the only heart that bDmroke that night
But siCnce I'm the one who saBbid goodbye
You can be the good man who was only trying to love me
And I will be the bFad guy
Could've sDmtayed yeah  When you said that you'd do better
And don't think I don't wConder  When I'm lyin' here wide awake
If I quit too soon, but Bbbaby  Yeah deep down, I knew the only way was out

The Bad Guy Meghan Patrick Capo#1

Dm C

Last night I was on the selfish side of lonely when I called you

I was weak, I knew damn well that you'd pick up

When I told you that I missed you, I meant it

But we both know why we ended There was nothing left to say

So I guess I'll take the blame

Bb F C Dm

Go ahead and hate me if you want to Tell everybody that I did you wrong

Bb F

That my blindsided slamming door came out of the blue

C Dm

And it was easy for me to just move on

Bb C

When the truth is that I loved you but you waited too long to fight

Yours ain't the only heart that broke that night

C Bb

But since I'm the one who said goodbye

You can be the good man who was only trying to love me

And I will be the bad guy

Could've stayed yeah When you said that you'd do better

And don't think I don't wonder When I'm lyin' here wide awake

If I quit too soon, but baby Yeah deep down, I knew the only way was out

Bb F C Dm

Go ahead and hate me if you want to Tell everybody that I did you wrong

Bb F

That my blindsided slamming door came out of the blue

C Dm

And it was easy for me to just move on

Bb C

When the truth is that I loved you but you waited too long to fight

Yours ain't the only heart that broke that night

C Bb

But since I'm the one who said goodbye

You can be the good man who was only trying to love me

Bb F C Dm

And I will be the bad guy

Bb F C Dm

Go ahead and hate me if you want to Tell everybody that I did you wrong

Bb F

That my blindsided slamming door came out of the blue

C Dm

And it was easy for me to just move on

Bb C

When the truth is that I loved you but you waited too long to fight

Yours ain't the only heart that broke that night

C Bb

But since I'm the one who said goodbye

You can be the good man who was only trying to love me

And I will be the bad guy
