Your butt is mine; gonna tell you right.

Just show your face, in broad daylight.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
I'm telling you, on how I feel.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
Gonna hurt your mind; don't shoot to kill. Come on,

[Verse 2] (with Intro Riff, Chords suggested)
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
I'm giving you, on count of three.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
To show your stuff, or let it be...
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
I'm telling you; just watch your mouth.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
I know your game; what you're about.
Bridge 1
[Bm7] [C#m7]
Well, they say the sky's the limit,
[Bm7] [C#m7]
And to me that's really true.
[Bm7] [C#m7]
But my friend you have seen nothin';
[E7#9]
Just wait 'till I get through...
Chorus 1
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
Because I'm bad, I'm bad, (really, really bad).
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
You know I'm bad, I'm bad, (really, really bad).
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
You know I'm bad, I'm bad, (really, really bad).
[Am7] [D7]
And the whole world has to answer, right now,
[Am7] [D7] N.C.
Just to tell you once a-gain; who's bad.

Verse 3
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
The word is out; you're doin' wrong.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
Gonna lock you up, be-fore too long.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
Your lyin' eyes, gonna tell you right;
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
So listen up; don't make a fight.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
Your talk is cheap; you're not a man.
[Am7] [D7] [Am7] [D7]
You're throwin' stones, to hide your hands.
