INTRO: C

C
Have you ever stared in the bottom of a coffee cup
    F                                        C
And discovered that you got no reason stayin up
G                                                 Cadd9  N/C
Right at the moment when, the caffeine is kickin in

       C
So you break down and give an old girlfriend a call
     F                                    C
Then after 2 hours of hearin her mindless talk
     G                                                                   Cadd9 N/C
You remember what you dumped her for, and you wish you hadn't opened that door

CHORUS:
               C
I do it and I don't know why
                        F
Hate to admit it but I think that I
                            G
Got somethin rollin 'round loose inside
                Cadd9
That never was screwed down tight
  G                            F             C
I don't know why I do it but I do it all the time

Have you ever worked hard to line your pocket with dough
Then let a little girl in love start burnin a hole
Know that she'll break your heart and max out your credit cards

CHORUS

SOLO

Have you ever fallen for a girl thinkin she's the one
Then get a funny feelin that your ramblin days are done
You can tell she loves ya so much, and ya have to go and screw it up

CHORUS 2:

I do it and I don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got somethin' rollin 'round loose inside
That never was screwed down tight
                                   C
No I don't know why I do it, but I do it
  C        C
I do it, I do it

CHORUS 3:

I do it and I don't know why
I got a habit of wreckin' my life
Keep leanin' left when I wanna go right
You know it isn't like I haven't tried
Oh I don't know why I do it but I do it all the time

  C
(Why I do it don't know why I do it)
   G                            F             C
I don't know why I do it but I do it all the time
