Jim Croce - Bad Bad Leroy Brown chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
After searching for this tab myself before, I found that 1 person had it down 
pretty well, but the only flaw was that he failed to mention that whenever he 
plays the G, and A7 chords, he does a shuffle. So, you have to play barre chords. 
When he plays the G, you switch your fingers down a string to a C barre chord in a 
shuffle rhythm, and when he plays the A7, you switch your fingers down to a D 
barre chord in a shuffle rhythm. So it will be G G C C G G C C, etc.

Verse 1
		G
	Well, the south side of Chicago
		A7
	is the baddest part of town.
		   B7
	And if you go down there
		    C		    D		     G
	you better just beware of a man named Leroy Brown.
		G
	Now, Leroy more than trouble,
		A7
	you see he stand about six foot four,
		B7			   C
	all the downtown ladies call him treetop lover,
		 D	           G
	all the men just call him sir.


Chorus	   G
	And he's bad, bad, Leroy Brown,
	    A7
	the baddest man in the whole damn town.
	B7			C
	Badder than ol' King Kong,
	D		        C
	meaner than a junk yard dog.
