Not a Bad Thing Terri Clark
Intro - D - A
Asus = x02230
(verse 1)
[A]I'm sittin' in this [Asus]cafe,
P[A]eople talkin' so loud I can't hear myself th[D]ink,
That's [A]not a bad thing,
The [A]coffee keeps on [Asus]coming,
The [A]waiter who keeps smilin' as,
I'm ridin' on a river of ca[D]ffeine,
An' that's [D]not a bad th[A]ing,
(chorus)
I u[E]sed to feel sorry for someone like me,
In a c[D]orner booth pretendin' to read on a Fr[A]iday night,
I used to say, It j[E]ust ain't right,
[E]How could anybody ever have any fun,
With[D]out somebody, without someone,
It never d[F#m]awned on me, the possib[D]ility,
That it's n[A]ot a bad thing
(verse 2)
[A]Those naggin' thoughts [Asus]about you,
H[A]ow I left without you tonight,
You know, they're few and far be[D]tween,
The w[A]aiter's name is [Asus]Joey, he told [A]me,
And that's when I noticed he ain't wearing any r[D]ing,
An' that's [A]not a bad thing,
(chorus)
And [E]there is a tug on the edge of my heart,
It's [D]you again sayin ,Don't you start lettin' [A]go of me,
But I ain't l[E]istenin,
For o[E]nce in my life, I'll feel what I feel,
[D]Let it be, let it be real, let it f[F#m]low through me,
An' w[D]ash me clean, that's not a bad t[E]hing,
(lead chords - E - D - E - D)
(verse 3)
[A]As I'm drivin' home, I'm t[Asus]hinkin, the w[A]orst might be over,
Or maybe I'm a little bit n[D]aive,
But the str[A]eet lights seem b[Asus]righter,
As I w[A]alk to my front door,
(no chord) D
And I'm all alone when I turn the key,
An' that's n[A]ot a bad thing,
(chorus)
I u[E]sed to feel sorry for someone like me,
In a c[D]orner booth pretendin' to read on a Fr[A]iday night,
I used to say, It j[E]ust ain't right,
[E]How could anybody ever have any fun,
With[D]out somebody, without someone,
It never d[F#m]awned on me, the possib[D]ility,
That it's n[A]ot a bad thin
