...YOU'VE GOT IT BAD GIRL... by Stevie Wonder

*from 'Talking Book' (1972)*


Verse 1:

Bm           C#m   Bm C#m Dm
 When you be-lieve in a   feeling,
       Em   Dm  Cm  Dm   Cm      Bm
That's hold-ing you back from my love;
                   Am      D9              Am       D9
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad, girl.

Verse 2:

Bm           C#m  Bm C#m Dm
 When you in-sist on ex -cluding,
    Em  Dm  Cm   Dm     Cm    Bm
The ten-der-ness that's in my kiss;
                   Am       D9             Am        G#7
Then you've got it bad girl, you've got it bad, girl.

Chorus 1:

       C#m                 Adim
If you try to display an e-motion,
          Bm            E7
That will contradict it-self,
         C#m                  Adim
You will find your heart just sitting,
       Bm     Bm C#m Dm     Bm C#m Dm     Bm C#m Dm
Like a statue on a   shelf, on a   shelf, on a   shelf.

Verse 3:

Bm          C#m Bm   C#m    Dm
 Should you de -pend on  an outlet,
        Em    Dm Cm  Dm   Cm     Bm
Through which an es -cape can be found;
                   Am        D9             Am        D9
Then you've got it bad, girl, you've got it bad, girl.

Verse 4:

Bm            C#m Bm      C#m Dm
 If you don't see there's no  way out,
     Em Dm  Cm Dm        Cm    Bm
Just no way of getting a-round me;
                   Am        D9             Am        G#7
Then you've got it bad, girl, you've got it bad, girl.

Chorus 2:

         C#m                 Adim
Yes, you know the plans I am making,
       Bm                E7
Are in-tended to capture you.
       C#m               Adim
So you practice false re-actions,
             Bm     C#m Dm       Bm    C#m Dm  Bm     C#m Dm
To delay the things I   do, the things I   do, things I   do.

Verse 5:

              Am        D9             Am  D9
You've got it bad, girl, you've got it bad.

Chorus 3:

           C#m          Adim        Bm           E7
There's no reward in de-touring, my deep sinceri-ty.
           C#m               Adim
Especially since what you're feeling,
   Bm        Bm    C#m Dm  Bm    C#m Dm  Bm    C#m Dm
Is perfectly clear to  me, clear to  me, clear to  me.

Verse 6:

   Bm       C#m Bm C#m     Dm
Be-fore you dis-co-ver the feeling,
       Em    Dm  Cm Dm  Cm    Bm
You've tried ve -ry ha -rd to hide,
              Am        D9             Am        D9
You've got it bad, girl, you've got it bad, girl.

Verse 7:

    Bm       C#m Bm   C#m    Dm
But when you can find just a small space,
   Em  Dm Cm   Dm   Cm      Bm
To let my love live in your mind,
                    Am         D9              Am         D9
Then you'll have it good, girl, you'll have it good, girl.
                    Am         D9              Am        D9
Then you'll have it good, girl, you'll have it good girl.
