[G]
[Gm] [G]
On the day I was born, the nurses all gathered round, and they gave them wide wonder at the
joy they had found.
The head nurse woke up, said, leave this one alone.
She could tell right away that I was bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad to the bone,
bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad
I broke a thousand hearts before I met you, I'll break a thousand more, baby, before I am through.
I want to be yours for the baby, yours and yours alone.
I'm here to tell you, honey, that I'm bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad [Gm] [G] to the bone,
bad
[Gm] to the bone.
[G] I'll make a rich woman beg, and I'll make a good woman steal.
I'll make an old woman blush, and I'll make a young girl [Gm] squeal.
[G] I want to be yours for the baby, yours and yours alone.
I'm here to tell you, honey, that I'm bad to the bone, bad to the bone,
[G]
bad to the bone,

[F#] [G]
Now when I walk the streets, kings and queens step aside, every woman I meet, they all stay
satisfied.
I want to tell you, pretty baby, when I see I'll make my own.
And I'm here to tell you, honey, that I'm bad to the bone, bad to the bone, bad to the bone,
bad to the bone.
