WHY DO YOU PUNISH ME (FOR LOVING YOU)
                                   Recorded by: Johnny Cash


G                       C      G
Why Do You Punish Me - for loving You
                D                       G
You're counting my mistakes - how about Yours
           C       G       C         G
Why do you sentence me - to nights of Tears
           D
Convicting all these Dreams
                           G
I've dreamed for all these Years



   C                                 G
My heart cries out behind these prison Bars
             D                              G
It pleads to you for your true love to set it Free
           C     G        C     G
Why Do You Punish Me - is love a Crime
            D                                G
If so, I'll spend a lifetime loving, serving Time



             Repeat last verse.
