B I was born in the middle of nowhere They found me in a sack I never knew no love or affection E So I never let it held me back B Now the time has moved along And I'm wiser as I'm older Well balanced? That I am I've got a chip on each of my shoulders D E I'm on a mission to spread the word A Of the meaning of the blues B F# So watch out now, here's Johnny! Chorus: A B Believe I'm bad news F# Oh yes I am A B Oh yes I am I ain't got no heart to speak of And my soul is black So I'll take yours for my own Don't ever ask me for them back Once I was good and true I even tried to become a believer But I soon found out where I should be praying The Church of The Lying Deceiver And when you think that I'm good to go I put on those walking shoes To find myself another sucker like you Chorus: Believe I'm bad news Hell yes I am Believe I'm bad news Oh yes I am Oh yes I am E And when you think that I'm good to go F# I put on those walking shoes B F# To find myself another sucker like you Chorus: Believe I'm bad news Oh yes I am Believe I'm bad news Hell yes I am Oh yes I am | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  B  D  E  F#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
