Song: No Bad News
Artist: Patty Griffin
Album: Children Running Through
Another cracker from Patty!
I learned this pretty much off her performance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show (on YouTube
needed)
I have a feeling she uses a different kind of tuning when playing because she strums
strings for a lot of it but I cant figure out what it is. If anyone can, let me know! This
right anyway..

Don't bring me bad news, no bad news
-
I don't need none of your bad news today
You're a sad little boy, anyone can see you're just a sad little boy
-
That's why you're carrying on that way
Why don't you burn it all down, burn your own house down, burn your own house down
-
Try to kill your own disease
And leave the rest of us, there's a lot of us, leave the rest of us
-
Who wanna live in peace to live in peace
----Riff x2
I'm gonna find me a man, love him so well,
love him so strong, love him so slow
-
We're gonna go way beyond the walls of this fortress
And we won't be afraid, we won't be afraid,
and though the darkness may come our way
-
We won't be afraid to be alive anymore
And we'll grow kindness in our hearts for all the strangers among us
Till there are no strangers anymore
---Riff and Solo
Don't bring me bad news, no bad news
-
I don't need none of your bad news today
You can't have my fear, I've got nothing to lose,
can't have my fear
-
I'm not getting out of here alive anyway
And I don't need none of these things, I don't need none of these things
-
I've been handed
And the bird of peace is flying over, she's flying over and
-
Coming in for a landing
---Riff till fade
