Am 
It was a half past nothing on a nowhere night 
I had no one to love, I had no one to fight 
     G                F             Am 
So I took a walk down Bad News Avenue 

I had a heart full of blood and a head full of booze 
I had nothing to gain, I had nothing to lose 
So I stepped inside a tavern and began to play 

                E 
Bad news, bad news 
               Am 
I'm talking to you 
                    G 
I don't know your name 
                 C/G  E7 
But I would love to 

                    Am 
Next thing I hear "knock knock" 
                      G 
Who that there at my door? 
         F 
I hear "knock knock" 
   E 
I think she's back for more 

Well, I woke up in the morning with a bad old head 
I had poison in my pocket and a body in my bed 
If you can get it with small change it might as well be free 

Well the sun came up and the ship went down 
I went looking through the gutter for the lost and found 
And that's when I saw you smiling back at me 

Bad news, bad news 
I'm talking to you 
I don't know your name 
But I would love to 

Next thing I hear "knock knock" 
Who that there at my door? 
I hear "knock knock" 
I think she's back for more, say it again 
I hear "knock knock" 
Who that there at my door? 
I hear "knock knock" 
I think she's back for more
