Here are the chords to 'I Did Something Bad' by Taylor Swift! It's one of my favourites
from her new album 'reputation' and it has easy chords
although the bridge is harder to play and sing because it is syncopated.
But practice makes perfect!
ALSO PLEASE READ: (*update*)
You can also play a Bm instead of a D in this song. This has been quite a divisive issue
for this tab as many people keep making corrections, changing the D to a Bm, but then other
people make corrections after that, changing the Bm back to a D. Personally, I think the Bm is
slightly more accurate (compared to original instrumental backing) but that the D sounds better
(so I left the D on the tab). They both work, okay? You can play whichever one you want.
It's really up to your personal taste. SO PLEASE, stop fighting over my tab with corrections!!!
Thank you, and have fun playing :)
