Meat Loaf - Bad For Good
INTRO: (## Screaming Lead Guitar ##)
G
C
The sea is whippin' the sky
The sky is whippin' the sea
Am
You can hide away forever from the storm
G D
But you'll never hide away from me
G
The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
Em D C
And we may lose everything in the wind
G C
But the Northern Lights are burnin' and they're giving off sparks
Am D
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
G C
You know, I'm onto your scent
We're near the end of the chase
C Am
Take a look out your window, I'll be there in the night
G D G
Oh, your love is so close that I can almost taste it
The cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
Em D C
And we may lose everything in the wind
G C
But the Northern Lights are burning and they're giving off sparks
Am D
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
Gm
You've been livin' your life like a girl in a cage
F Gm
And you whisper when I want you to shout (whisper when I want you to shout)
And I never know why you wanna go on sleepin'
Bb D
When there's nothing left to dream about
But you better remember....
G C G
If it's somethin' I want, then it's somethin' I need
Em Am C G
I wasn't built for comfort, I was built for speed
G C G
If it's somethin' I want, then it's somethin' I need
Em Am C G
I wasn't built for comfort, I was built for speed
Am G
And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever
Em D C
I'm never gonna be what I should
G Am G C
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
(think that I'll be bad for just a little while)
G Am G C
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
D G
But I know that I'll be bad for good
C
Your eyes are darker than sin
And I've been watchin' them glow
Am
Take a chance on a promise and a roll of the dice
G D G
Put your foot on the gas, let it go, let it go, let it go
Gm
You've been livin' your life like a girl in a cage
F
And you whisper when I want you to shout
Gm
And I never know why you wanna go on sleepin'

When there's nothing left to dream about
But you better remember....
