Vance Gilbert "My Bad" chords
Start Jamming...
I'm gonna do a song that has a little jazz in it.
I hope you guys don't get offended
[F#]
[B] And I [B] figured I was thinking about [C#] people like the [C#m] one of the managers here.
What's her [D#m] name?
AJ?
Is that your name, baby?
[B] Yeah, I know.
It's so great [G#] that you're surrounded and you come here all this music
But I [C#m] know you don't listen to a lot of jazz because you're young
I'm twice your [F#] age so you need to stop hitting on [B] me anyway
[G#]
This song is for you darling [C#m] because I think jazz music
I think jazz [D#m] music is a great music [F#] to listen to [F] and
Changes [F#] the way the chords [Fm] move and all are [C#m] wonderful, but it doesn't speak [C#] to the youth
it doesn't speak to young [F#] people the way that it could because [G#m] the lyrics are always a
[F]
[G#] foggy day
[F#] In London town [D#] no one cares about the weather in London you can go to weather calm and find that
She doesn't need that so I just figured [G#] I would [C#m] write this song [F#] and and I don't know you [B] know
I'm just thinking you have to suspend reality for a minute.
Just think everybody [G#] imagine they bring Billie Holiday [C#m] back to life
I don't [F#] know.
I don't know how they do it out of [A] they've crossed Beyonce with a sheep.
I don't know what they do
But they bring [B] Billie Holiday back to [G#] life
[C#m] And they want her to sing a song [F#] but just like down here in Nashville
They put they need [B] a hit and they want her to [G#] have this hit so they fill this [C#m] room
Full of people to write [F#] this hit for Billie Holiday all [D#m] these young people get together and write [G#m] this hit
And [E] they fill this room with [F#] like in this room [C#m] is Mumford and Sons and Bruno [F#] Mars
[D#m]
Taylor Swift and [G#] Jay-z [F#] and Justin [C#m] Timberlake and [D#] and
[F#] Kanye West take the [B] mic from him first
[D#m] [G#]
And they write this hit [C#m] for Lady Day
They write this hit [F#] for Billie Holiday, and I'm thinking maybe it sounds [A#m] something like this, [D]
and [C#m] I'm not singing down to you
Hey Jay, I'm not singing [A#] down to you, honey
This [B] is just in language that you might get to since you're a young person
[C] [F#] [A]
[C#m] My bad, [F#]
I guess this ain't my house
[B] My bad
That's not [D#m] my bed.
She's [G#] not my spouse
[C#m] Dude, I don't blame you for being [F#] mad
[D#m]
My bad
[G#]
[C#m] [F#]
[C] my [C#m] bad
[D#] Cut a [F#] whole boy some slack my [B] bad I
[D#m] Know tapping that [G#] was whack
[C#m] But your [G#] wife is still grinning [F#] she seems so glad
[B] Still it's my bad
[C]
[G#m] [B] [B]
[D#m] [E] Can't keep my mitts off your mama
[Em] [E]
Who [D#m] that biddy-boody fuku-fly
[G#]
[C#] She got [D#m] junk in her [Em] trunk
[C#]
And I like [B] big butts and I cannot [G#] lie
[F#] [C] My
