Tell Me Why

I took a chance,

(G5)I took a shot.

(Dsus)And you might think I'm (Em7)bulletproof,

but I'm not.

You took a swing,

(G5)I took it hard.

(Dsus)And down here from the (Em7)ground I see who you are.

I'm sick and tired of your (G5)attitude.

I'm feelin' like I don't (D)know you.

You tell me that you (Em7)love me,

then cut me down.

(Csus2)round. And I need you like a (G5)heartbeat,

but you know you got a (D)mean streak.

Makes me run for (Em7)cover when you're around.

And here's to you and your temper.

Yes, I (G)remember what you (D)said last night.

And I know that you see what you're doin' to me.

Tell me why.

You could write a (G5)book on how to ruin (D)someone's perfect (Em7)day.

Well, I get so (G5)confused and frustrated,

(D)forget what I'm try'n' to say.

Oh,

(G)Why (D)(Em7)do you have to (C)make me feel small

so (G)you can feel whole inside?

(Em7)Why do you have to (C)put down my dreams so (A)you're the only thing on my mind?

(Csus2)I'm sick and tired of your (G5)attitude.

I'm feelin' like I don't (Dsus)know you.

You tell me that you (Em7)want me,

then cut me (Csus2)down.

I'm sick and tired of your (G5)reasons.

I got no one to (D)believe in.

You ask me for my (Em7)love,

then you push me around.

(C)Here's to you and your temper.

Yes, I (G)remember what you (D)said last night.

And I know that you see what you're doin' to me.

Tell me (G)why.

(Em7)Why, tell me why.

(Csus2)I take a step back,

(G5)let you go.
