       B                        
  You wear skirt like a flag
       A                         
  And everything surrounds you, and it doesn't fade
       B                           
  Nothing like this sound I make

                 B                      A            
  Cuz you're the low life of the party, bad blood
   B                     
  Bad blood for everybody
          A                     
  I'm in control and I believe

   E           B             A
