G
Heard every word that was said that night

         F                          C     F  G
When the light of the world put the world to right

F
Here's to the boys back in 628

         C                     F     C  G
Where an ear to the wall was a twist of fate

Am
I will shine a blinding light

Bb
Through those hearts as black as night

C
Sticks and stones may break my bones

       G                  F            G
But at least the seeds of love will be sown

Fmaj7
Once in awhile when I feel no shame

      G
I get down on my knees and I pray for rain

    Fmaj7
The breeze blows gently while I state my case

            G
There'll be certain men waiting just to scratch my face

Fmaj7
Hand on my heart I will make a stand

        G                        
For the life and the times of the mirror man

F     Fmaj7 G
In my head, there is a mirror

F              Fmaj7 G
When I've been bad,  I've been wrong

F            Fmaj7           G
Food for the saints that are quick to judge me

Bb
Hope for a bad man

F                    G
This is the badman's song

Fmaj7
Guilt in the frame of the looking-glass

       G
Puts a shine on the mind where reflections pass

          Fmaj7
Where the jigsaw pieces of a broken man

G
Try and fit themselves together again

Fmaj7
Lies in disguise in the name of trust

         G
Put your head in the sand it will turn to dust 

Fmaj7
What's your problem ? What's your curse ?

G
Won't it make the matter worse ?

F     Fmaj7 G
In my head, there is a mirror

F             Fmaj7 G
When I've been bad, I've been wrong

F            Fmaj7           G
Food for the saints that are quick to judge me

Bb
Hope for a bad man

F                     G
This is the bad man's song

         Bb                             
They say faith can move move mountains

G
Fire can cleanse your soul 

Bb
Faith can move mountains

G
But mind over matter won't you stop all your chatter 
(Piano solo)
Fmaj7
Sweet talking boys who can do no wrong

         G
When the stories are tall as the day is long

            Fmaj7
With such a thin drawn between friend and foe

G
Lord help me now and bless my soul 

Fmaj7                  
Look at yourself - See how you lie

     G
Your hands start shaking and you don't know why

Fmaj7
Look at yourself - See how you lie 

     G
Your hands start shaking and you don't know why

F            Fmaj7           G
Food for the saints that are quick to judge me

Bb
Hope for a bad man

F                    G
This is the badman's song
