He tunes down on this but I tabbed this in standard tuning 


Capo 3

C                             C/B  Am                             G 
God why is it gotta hurt this much going on every day without her touch
  C                      C/B                Am                  Am/G              F
I know it had to end and she's moved on but I'm stuck here with all these songs I wrote about her
          Dm               G
and these memories sure do hurt
  C                 C/B             Am 
I know it's time to get on with our lives,
                           Am/G                  F
and there ain't nothing to say cause we said goodbye

Chorus
Dm        G              C                         C/B
Why can't I, why can't I get you out of my head or start to fall for someone else,
    Am                               F                  G
why can't a single day go by without wishing I could go back in time?
         C                           C/B                                    Am
Why does every single memory lead me back to you and the way things used to be?
    F                    Dm                G                              Am C/B      C     Am  C/B   C F            C  C/B Am
I’m trying so hard to forget about you and learn to live my life with you gone, gone, gone. Why, why, why, why can't I?
Am/G  F  Dm G
 Why?


I took the radio out of my truck cause every song that played reminded me of us
I can’t believe that this is it that we're walking away and calling it quits after all this time
but it ain't noones fault but mine.
I know it's time to get on with our lives,
and there ain't nothing to say cause we said goodbye.


Chorus


     C               C/B             Am               Am/F           F                      Dm G
Yeah what I’d do for one more day,to call you mine or hear you say I love you just one more time
         C               C/B             Am              Am/G                     F         G
If there was one thing I could undo, I’d take back how I lied to you and threw it all away
                 Am  C/B     C     Am    C/B   C
Cause now you’re gone, gone, gone. Gone, gone, gone
    F                    Dm                G 
I’m trying so hard to forget about you and learn
                         Am    C/B   C
to live my life with you gone, gone, gone
Am  C/B   C  F           C  C/B Am Am/G  F Dm G C
Why, why, why, why can’t I?       Why?
