Well, I drink too much and I stay out all night long

Twelve-step coins from meetings just to live this life

Maybe I'm just a bad guy, I don't know why

              D                      G       D       A 
I'll swear to what you want and I'll promise you the moon 
D                    A                  G       G/F#   Em7 
 You do your best to change my heart but broken always falls apart

It won't matter how  hard you try 

                         D                G 
'Cause, baby, I'm just a bad guy, I don't know why
