Bad News Blues

E7

[Verse 1]
E7
Bad news on my TV screen, bad news on the magazines
E7
Bad news on the newspaper, bad news on the elevator
E7
Bad news on the street, bad news in my car
E7
Bad news under my feet, bad news at the bar
E7
All over my clothes, under my hat
E7
On the radio, in the laundromat
E7
Hanging in the air, laying on the ground
E7
Walking up the stairs, bad news all around
A7
No matter where I go
                        E7
I can't get away from it
A7                      E7
Don't you know I'm knee deep in it?
A7                                E7
Who's gonna believe liars and lunatics?
A7                                   E7
Fools and thieves and clowns and hypocrites
A7                                             E7
Gluttony and greed and that ain't the worst of it
B7
All the news you could read
                        E7
all the news is fit to print

[Instrumental]
A7    E7
A7    E7
A7    E7
A7    E7
A7    E7   B7

[Verse 2]
E7
Bad news on my left, bad news on my right
E7
Bad news in the morning, bad news at night
E7
In my frigerator, bad news on my sink
E7
On my typewriter, bad news in my drink
E7
Bad news on the walls, all over the floor
E7
Down the hall, knocking at the door
E7
Bad news in my mail, follow me home
E7
Bad news on my trail, bad news on my phone
A7                                                 E7
No matter where I go I can't seem to get away from it
A7                                         E7
Don't you know, don't you know I'm knee deep in it?
A7                             E7
Who's gonna believe liars and lunatics?
A7                                    E7
Fools and thieves and clowns and hypocrites
A7                                               E7
Gluttony and greed and that ain't the worst of it
        B7
All the news you could read
                           E7
And all the news is fit to print
