1. [G]Escaping nights with-[Em]out you with shadows on the [G]wall
My mind is running [D]wild tryin hard not to [G]fall
You told me that you [Em]love me but say I’m just a [G]friend
My heart is broken [D]up into pieces Cos I [G]know. I’ll never free my [D]soul
It’s trapped bet-[Em]ween true love and being [C]alone
When my eyes are [G]closed the greatest story [D]told
I woke and my [Em]dreams are shattered here on the [C]floor
Chorus:
[G]Why oh why tell me [D]why not me, [Em]why oh why we were [C]meant to be
Baby [G]I know I could be all you [D]need, [Em]why oh why oh [C]why.
I wanna [G]love you, If [D]you only knew how much I [Em]love you, So [C]why not me
2. [G]The day after to-[Em]morrow I’ll still be a-[G]round
To catch you when [D]you fall and ever let you [G]down
You say that we’re for-[Em]ever our love will never [G]end
I’ve tried to come [D]up but it’s drowning me to [G]know. You’ll never feel my [D]soul
It’s trapped bet-[Em]ween true love and being [C]alone
When my eyes are [G]closed the greatest story [D]told
I woke and my [Em]dreams are shattered here on the [C]floor
Chorus:
Tell me baby [G]Why oh why tell me [D]why not me, [Em]why oh why we were [C]meant to be
Baby [G]I know I could be all you [D]need, [Em]why oh why oh [C]why.
I wanna [G]love you, If [D]you only knew how much I [Em]love you, So [C]why not me.
[G]You won’t ever [D]know, [Em]how far we can [C]go
[G]You won’t ever [D]know, [Em]how far we can [C]go (go)
Chorus:
[G]Why oh why tell me [D]why not me, [Em]why oh why we were [C]meant to be
Baby [G]I know I could be all you [D]need, [Em]why oh why oh [C]why.
I wanna [G]love you, If [D]you only knew how much I [Em]love you, So [C]why not me
I wanna [G]love you, If [D]you only knew how much I [Em]love you, So [C]why not me
(why not me, why not me)
