[Verse 3]
A
They got love for sale, yes for sale
G Em D/F#
On the New York subway line
A
Watch the working girls hanging out
G Em
Turning tricks underneath the lights,
Em
Oh the lights
[Pre-Chorus]
G
One step from hell
A
The poor men sell their soul for a taste of wine
[Chorus]
Em D
You gotta be bad to be good
A G Em
If you know what I'm talkin' about
D
What's that
A G D/F#
So I say it again
Em D
You gotta be bad to be good
A G Em
If you know what I'm talkin' about
D
What's that
A G D/F#
So I say it again
Em D A G D/F#
Bad to be good
Em D A G D/F#
You gotta be bad to be good
Em D A G D/F#
Bad to be good
Em
You gotta be bad to be good
D
What's that
A G D/F#
So I say it again
[Outro]
G
When it's said and done and you're on the run
A G D/F# Em
And the only law comes under the gun
