 & intro

G                     D                         G 
Not Long ago in a one-horse town, down south of Sante Fe
  C                   G             
A one-eyed half-breed amputee sat thinking of the way
   C                            G
He settle the score with that runnin' sort who had 

left him the way he is:

One-armded, half-blind and

crippled in his mind,
       D
and he, that amputee, 
      C
could not...
       G  
forgive!

           Riffing, with variations, repeat

G                     D                                  G 
He swore to kill that stranger for this one bad thing he done.
    C                    G             
For three long years, he practiced until he could use the gun!
C                   G             
Heart of stone--he lived alone, and he lived on beans and eggs.

Folks could tell what time it was
       D
by the egg 
        C
running down
    G 
his face!

    C                       G
Bad blood -- will drive you crazy
    C                       G
Bad blood -- I've heard men say
    C                   G         G  /f#  Em  
Bad blood -- is like an egg stain on your chin
        G              D              G
you can lick it but it still won't go away

    G                  D                                     G 
For four more years he roamed around until his legs was worn away.
     C                     G             
Then he bummed around from town to town, "Has a stranger passed this way?
    C                    G             
The man I'm looking for has two eyes, but he's a one-breed dirty dog.

When I find him,
    D
I'm gonna shoot him!
            C
--Don't you laugh at me!

'Cos man, unhuh...
     G
I'm really pissed!


    G                  D                                 G 
The stagecoach jingle-jangled into town one hot mid-afternoon.
     C              G             
He saw the stranger get off near the Seborrhoea Saloon,     C              G             
And just as he was easin' in, a lumberjack rolled out.

And shot him dead, 
     D
then One-Eye said:
     

       C
"Hey you, 
mutton-head! 
          G
I've been lookin' for that particular son-of-a-bitch for nearly seven years, man! 

You've just spoiled everything! I could have been a doctor or an architect!"


    C                       G
Bad blood -- will drive you crazy (Ha-ha-ha-ha)
    C                       G
Bad blood -- I've heard men say
    C                   G         G  /f#  Em  
Bad blood -- is like an egg stain on your chin
        G              D              G
you can lick it but it still won't go away
