[verse]
C                   Am           F             C
You straighten your back and you push out your chin
C          Am               G            F
Stubbornly proud of the situation you’re in
          C          Am               G            Dm
You got a handful of friends who will stand up for you
    C            Am           G           C
But how many bad things can a good person do?


[verse]
    C               Am           F               C
The things that you did were the things that you planned
    C           Am               G              F
The whole world spins around the spot where you stand
    C           Am         G               Dm
For all of your life you believed that was true
    C            Am           G           C
But how many bad things can a good person do?


[chorus]
F            Fm
How many bad things?
C            Am
How many bad things?
Em              F
We can count on you.


[verse]
C           Am            F             C
We judge ourselves by the things in our heads
C                     Am          G                    F
We judge everyone one else by the things that they’ve said
      C          Am            G            Dm
We’re always the hero from our own point of view
    C            Am           G           C
But how many bad things can a good person do?


[chorus]
F            Fm
How many bad things?
C            Am
How many bad things?
Em              F
We can count on you.
