Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Bm][G][Bm][G][Bm][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]This song [Bm]offended [G]some. Not the [Bm]music, [G]of [Bm]cours[C]e, but the title and lyrics. The[Bm] notion of "I Am No Good" is not particularly popular in a society where we are constantly told to "beli[G]eve in ourselves" and to "stick up for your rights". Even among believers there can be a[Bm] difficult quandry with this. The truth is, any good that is in any of us comes from Jesus Christ. Any worth that we have in this life is from Him and [G]Him alone. That said,
I personally like this song very much. It's different, that's for sure. It has light jazz overtones. The arrangement is slightly odd, but it all [Bm]works. Heck, this song was even fun in concert!

[Verse 2]
We've already touched on the lyrical content, I suppose. The dominant concept in this song, as the title might suggest, [C]is that "I Am No Good". There is a progression in [G]the song of self- reliance,
the first few verses, [Bm]to the final line, [G]"now [Bm]I fa[G]ll indeed". That[Em]'s the progression[C] that we a[Bm]ll need. Amen.
So it seized me So it grieves me

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Grabs
me everyday
will it bleed through?
Does it burn you?
Got to take us ever low

[Verse 4]
take, us, [G]take us ever low
No, other,
no other chance I know

[Verse 5]
am I thinking? Am I drinking?
[G]

[Verse 6]
Wrapped in me today
[Bm]so you're scheming
Still you're dreaming
[G]All you have and plan you fail
[Bm]all,

[Verse 7]
[G]you, [Bm]all you h[C]ave you fail[Bm]
[G]I, [Bm]put,
[G]I put my life up [C]for sale
[D][Em]

[Verse 8]
[F]
cause I am no [D]good
[Em](i am no [F]good)
I am [Em]no one
[D](i am no one)
[Em]No, [F]I am no good
[D][G][C][Bm]

[Verse 9]
[Bm]leave it all down
I give all now
Full of [G]earth, I agree

[Verse 10]
does [G]it [Bm]create?
Like [G]a headache?
Got you on your hands and [Bm]knees

[Verse 11]
[G]on, [Bm]your,
on [C]your hands and [G]knees[Bm]
Now, [G]I, now [C]I fall in need
[D][Em]

[Verse 12]
[F]
cause I am no [D]good
[Em](i am [F]no good)
I am no one
(i am [D]no [Em]one)[F]
No, I am no [D]good
(i am [C]no [D]goo[Em]d)[F]
Cause I am no good
(i am [D]no good)
I [Em]am n[F]o one
(i am no one)
[D]No, [Em]I am[F] no good
