All the Good Guys Are Bad

©2018 by Paul Sacco rev 6/18/18 rev 7-8-21

INTRO : D G D A 2X


D      G

V1 He joined up, when he was just a kid

A                                             D

he looked proud as the stripes on his sleeve

D                G

Now some folks in ivory towers, they look down

Em             A

at a country they can’t see


Intro 1X


D        G    A                  D

V2 He’d never play the victim  ---no one even knew when he got sick

D            G      Em         A          Now we all whine --- our way to fame  --- taking pictures of it.


CHORUS

D                G

And, sometimes I miss my Dad…

D

now all the bad guys are good,

A             D

and all the good guys are bad.


Intro 1X


Bm                                          G                     D

INTERLUDE  He was the toughest guy, I ever knew, when our hero’s

A                                           Bm                                          G

could be strong (break accent)  Now our world is turning, turning blue

Em      A

we’ve forgotten right from wrong


CHORUS

Intro 2X, then (D G Bm A), (Bm G D A)  (end on D)
