Badass

This song was recorded by Garbage in 2003 and released as a b-side with the single "Run
Run", from their album Bleed Like Me, in 2005. It's really fun and easy to play, I
myself by ear. It's not your typical Garbage song but it's one of my favorites, even 
it's extremely annoying.

**Listen to the song for exact timing.**

 *Slight variation: she merges lyrics from both the Pre-chorus and the Chorus here, but
guitars are playing the chords from the chorus. A quick listen should clear it up easily.*
