Chorus:
      G           Bm              C       D
He's good for my heart, but he's bad for business
G         Bm           C          D
Tears me apart when he grants my wishes
Em          D                C#m
All of my friends think I've gone crazy
      C
But they don't know me like my ba—
Ba—, ba—, ba—

    G            Bm             C                D
We look good in photographs, I like the way you like to laugh
    G              Bm          C         D
At dirty jokes, I know they'll always land
G               Bm            C                D
Used to get to work on time, now you're taking up my nights
 G             Bm         C        D
Never been so glad to be so tired

G         Bm        C       D
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I'm mad for you
      G       Bm          C    D
It's sad but true and I know it
G       Bm         C      D
Ha, ha, ha, you're on my mind
      G       Bm             C        D
You stole my life and it's showing (Baby)

Chorus

If I'm just writing happy songs, will anybody sing along?
You had to go and break into my head
And I would try to fight these feelings,
I can't find a single reason
I'd make all the same mistakes again, ah

Ooh, I'm mad for you
It's sad but true and I know it
Ah, you're on my mind
You stole my life and it's showin' (Ba—, ba—, ba—)

Chorus

      G                 Bm
He's good (Good), he's bad (Bad)
     C              D
The best I've ever had (The best I've ever had)
             G         Bm
And he's so nice it's sad (It's sad)
    C              D
He ruined all my plans
             G           Bm
And he just makes me so crazy
    C            D                 G Bm
I know where he wants me (Wants me)
     C
And he'll be the death of me

Chorus:
He's good for my heart, but he's bad for business
(He's very bad for business)
Tears me apart when he grants my wishes
All of my friends think I've gone crazy
But they don't know me like my baby

He's good for my heart, but he's bad for business
(So bad)
Tears me apart when he grants my wishes
All of my friends think I've gone crazy
But they don't know me like my baby
