Boyce Avenue - Not A Bad Thing
Tabbed by: Stefan Premovic
This is a chord version of the song, based on my tab version.
In chorus parts you can skip slides, hammer-ons and pull-offs,
or you can play them, depending on how good you can squeeze
them into the strumming(look at my tab version to see which one
of the 2,3,4 goes in what part of the chorus). :)
Tuning: Half-step down

Intro:
G (1) | Em7 A7sus4/F# (2) x3
[Verse 1:]
G (1) Em7 A7sus4/F# (2)
Said all I want from you is to see you tomorrow
G (1) Em7 A7sus4/F# (3)
And every tomorrow, maybe you'll let me borrow your heart
G (1) Em7 A7sus4/F# (2)
And is it too much to ask for every Sunday
G (1) Em7 A7sus4/F# (4)
And while we're at it, throw in every other day to start
[Pre-chorus:]
G (1)
I know people make promises all the time
Em7 A7sus4/F# (2)
Then they turn right around and break them
G (1) Em7 A7sus4/F# (3)
Someone cuts your heart open with a knife, now you're bleeding
G (1)
But I could be that guy to heal it over time
Em7 A7sus4/F# (2) G
And I won't stop until you believe it
(1) Em7 A7sus4/F#
'Cause baby you're worth it
[Chorus:]
G Em7 A7sus4/F#
So don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me
G Em7 A7sus4/F#
You might look around and find your dreams come true, with me
G Em7 A7sus4/F#
Spent all your time and your money just to find out that my love was free
G Em7 A7sus4/F# G Em7 A7sus4/F#
So don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
G Em7 A7sus4/F# G Em7 A7sus4/F#
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
G Em7 A7sus4/F#
Ohohoh, heyeyey
[Verse 2:]
Now how about I'd be the last voice you hear tonight?
And every other night for the rest of the nights that there are
And every morning I just wanna see you staring back at me
'Cause I know that's a good place to start
[Pre-chorus:]
I know people make promises all the time
Then they turn right around and break them
Someone cuts your heart, open with a knife, now you're bleeding
But I could be that guy to heal it over time
And I won't stop until you believe it
'Cause baby you're worth it
[Chorus:]
So don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me
You might look around and find your dreams come true, with me
Spent all your time and your money just to find out that my love was free
So don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
Not such a bad thing to fall in love with me
[Bridge:]
Am7add11 Dsus4/F#
No I won't fill your mind
Em Dsus4/F# Em
With broken promises and wasted time
Am7add11 Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And if you fall, you'll always land right in these arms
G
These arms of mine
[Chorus:]
Don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me
You might look around and find your dreams come true, with me
Spent all your time and your money just to find out that my love was free
So don't act like it's a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
It's not a bad thing to fall in love with me, me
Not such a bad thing to fall in love with me
