  			G                    C 
Lord I need somebody bad tonight 

G                                    D7 
It’s hurting more than I believed it would 

    G                    C 
Yes Lord I need somebody bad tonight 

      G      D7            G 
Cause I just lost somebody good 



G                                   C 
I came in here to find someone like you to take her place 

G                                   D7 
For just a little while and I’ll be gone 

     G                         C 
I’ll hold you in arms close my eyes and see her face 

    G                   D7              G 
And I won’t recall your name when I get home 



G                    C 
Lord I need somebody bad tonight 

G                                    D7 
It’s hurting more than I believed it would 

    G                    C 
Yes Lord I need somebody bad tonight 

      G      D7            G     D7 
Cause I just lost somebody good 



    G                    C 
Yes Lord I need somebody bad tonight 

      G      D7            G 
Cause I just lost somebody good
