Matt Maltese - Bad Contestant

[Intro]

G B7 Em A7
(x2)

[Verse 1]
G B7
I’m a toothache
Em A7
I’m the saddest case
G B7 Em A7
I’m often looking round for my next mistake
G B7
I’m your garden waste
Em A7
I’ve left no trace
G B7 Em A7
I’m only here for some hollow math debate

[Chorus]
G B7 Em A7
I’m a bad, bad contestant
G B7 C A/C#
I ain’t much but baby I could impress ya
G B7 Em A7
I’m a bad, bad contestant
G B7 C A/C#
I ain’t no prince of love but give me a second

G B7 Em A7
(x2)

[Verse 2]
G B7 Em A7
I’m a dead end, a budget hotel
G B7 Em A7
I’m pretty good at feeling sorry for myself
G B7
I’m a deck chair
Em A7
Your cheap underwear
G B7 Em A7
A bad Christian who never goes to prayer

[Chorus]
G B7 Em A7
I’m a bad, bad contestant
G B7 C A/C#
I ain’t much but baby I could impress ya
G B7 Em A7
I’m a bad, bad contestant
G B7 C A/C#
I ain’t no prince of love but give me a second

[Bridge]
C G
And if you want funny
B7 Em
I could be your jester honey
C G B7 Em C
And if you want rock n roll I can stop playing my slow songs
G B7 Em A7
If you want conversation I’ll stay up with you all night

[Chorus]
G B7 C A/C#
I’m a bad, bad contestant
G/D B7 Am Am7
I’d go home with the lowest prize on TV
G B7 C A/C#
A bad, bad contestant
G/D B7/Eb Em7 A7
You can find me finishing off the empties

[Outro]
G B7 Em A7
(He’s a bad, bad contestant)
G B7 C A/C#
I ain’t much but baby I could impress you
G B7 Em A7
(He’s a bad, bad contestant)
G B7 C A/C#
They say the underdogs are always the best ones
