If It Wasn't For Bad by Elton John/Leon Russell
If It Wasn't For Bad
Listen to recording for rhythms during Intro and Instrumental Break.
INTRO:
Edim Am Dm Dm/C Bb Bb/A Gm Am Dm
VERSE:
Bb C Dm
I knew from the first night I met you
Bb C Dm
Something just wasn't quite right
Bb C Dm
Looked like an innocent stranger
Gm A
But something was just out of sight
Bb C Dm
How could I know that you would use me
Bb C Dm
Fill out some plan of your own
Bb C Dm
I couldn't know you'd abuse me
Gm A
And leave me here hurt and alone
CHORUS:
Gm A Dm
If it wasn't for you I'd be happy
Edim A Dm
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true
Bb C Dm
I know that you could be just like you should
Bb/F Gm Dm
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
VERSE:
I only saw what I wanted to see
You were a dream in my mind
I didn't know how you really could be
It didn't take long for me to find
I guess that it's my fault for seeing
Only what I wanted to see
I couldn't know you would be
A player just acting for me
CHORUS:
Bb C Dm
If it wasn't for you I'd be happy
Bb C Dm
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true
Bb A Dm
I know you could be just like you should
Bb A Dm
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
