More Bad Times

Performed by Ed's Redeeming Qualities with additional vocals by Callie

Thorne

Written by Dom Leone

*This song comes from the soundtrack of the movie "Ed's Next Move."(a

wonderful by the way) The band, Ed's Redeeming Qualities(ERQ), now has

their own album out. I've never seen or heard it so I don't know if there

is a version of this song on there. Anyway, this is from the movie. As

far as instrumentation goes, I have figured the song out on guitar with

standard tuning. In the song he plays, I think, a ukelale,.(is that

spelled right?)but this works for guitar. The song starts with the

chorus. The e second and third verses erses are p w layed wIith the same

chords as the first. s aas the first.

(no intro)

Chorus:

You twisted your ankle, I carried you

You got a divorce, so I married you

You fell off a cliff, so I buried you

I wish there were more bad times to see you through

You never got rabies

You never gained weight

You never came home with a scar

You never drank posion, you watched what you ate

You never so much as put a scratch on my car

(Chorus)

You never got measles, you never got gout

You never suggested charades

You never got dizzy, you never fell out

You never picked up any live handgrenades

Bridge:

So many things did go wrong, but the list is not

long enough-not enough

bad things to fill up a song

(Chorus)

You never lost contacts, you never leaked oil

You never fell to sticks and stones

You never drank cleanser, you never ate foil

You never chocked on an big chicken bones

(Chorus end with a slow G aAfter the final C
