(Non Capo)

(Intro.)
None

(Verse 1)
(Em)Opened up my (D/F#)journal to a (G)page
(G)Everything that (D/F#)hurts me, still the (C)same
Feels (C)like there's nothing (D)new for me to (Em)say
(Em)Why why (G)why, why why (C)why
(Em)Sweating through the (D/F#)sheets shakin' in (G)bed
(G)Visions of her (D/F#)naked in my (C)head
But (C)I went off and (D)chose myself in-(Em)stead
Why why (G)why, ease my (C)mind

(Chorus)
I don't know (C)why, (G) (D)I (Em)
I don't know, (C)I don't know (G)why
Why why why (D)

(Verse 2)
(Em)I stepped off the (D/F#)stage with nothing (G)left
(G)All the lights were (D/F#)f**kin' with my (C)head
But (C)here I am, (D)singing songs a-(Em)gain
(Em)Why why (G)why, ease my mind (C)

(Chorus)
I don't know (Em)why, (D/F#) (G) (D)I (Em)
I don't know, I don't know (C)why (G)
Why why why, (D) why why why

(Bridge)
(C) Feels like every-(G)thing goes round and (D)round
And (D)round and round and round it (C)goes
Feels like every-(G)thing goes round and (D)round
And round and (D)round and round it

(Verse 3)
(Em)Thought I was a-(D/F#)bout to be a (G)father
(G)Shook me to the core, (D/F#) I'm still a (C)kid
(Em)Sometimes I still (Em)cry out for my (Em)mother
Why why (G)why, why why (C)why
 
(Chorus)
I don't know (Em)why, I (D/F#) / |(G) / / / |(D) / / / |(Em)
I don't know, (C)I don't know (G)why
Why why why, (D) why why why

(Outro.)
(C) Feels like every-(G)thing goes round and (D)round
And round and (D)round and round it goes
(C) Feels like every-(G)thing goes round and (D)round
And (D)round and round and round it (NC) goes - - - - -
