Well the [G]South side of Chicago, is the [A7]baddest part of town
And if you [B7]go down there, you better [C]just beware
Of a [D7]man named Leroy [G]Brown
Now [G]Leroy more than trouble, you see he [A7]stand 'bout six foot four
All the [B7]downtown ladies call him [C]'Treetop Lover'
All the [D7]men just call him [G]'Sir'
{soc}
And he's [G]bad, bad Leroy Brown
The [A7]baddest man in the whole damned town
[B7]Badder than old King [C]Kong
And [D7]meaner than a junkyard [G]dog
{eoc}
{c:verse 2}
Now [G]Leroy, he a gambler, and he [A7]like his fancy clothes
And he [B7]like to wave his [C]diamond rings,
In front of [D7]everybody's [G]nose
He got a [G]custom Continental, he got an [A7]Eldorado too
He got a [B7]32 gun in his [C]pocket for fun
He got a [D7]razor in his [G]shoe

Well [G]Friday 'bout a week ago, [A7]Leroy shootin' dice
And at the [B7]edge of the bar sat a [C]girl named Doris
And [D7]oo that girl looked [G]nice [G]
Well he [G]cast his eyes upon her, and the [A7]trouble soon began
Cause [B7]Leroy Brown learned a [C]lesson 'bout messin'
With the [D7]wife of a jealous [G]man
{soc}
And he's [G]bad, bad Leroy Brown
The [A7]baddest man in the whole damned town

{c:verse 4}
Well the [G]two men took to fighting
And when they [A7]pulled them from the floor
[B7]Leroy looked like a [C]jigsaw puzzle
With a [D7]couple of pieces [G]gone
{soc}
And he's [G]bad, bad Leroy Brown
The [A7]baddest man in the whole damned town
[B7]Badder than old King [C]Kong
And [D7]meaner than a junkyard [G]dog

and [D7]meaner than a [C]junkyard [G]dog
