The reason why
B G#m E
Why do I, choose the things I choose?
Why do I, always find some lame excuse?
Why do I, not realize what I would do?
E F# B—G#m—E—F#
Oh I wish I knew the reason why.
B G#m E F#
Why do you, get that sad look in your face?
Why do you, pull away from my embrace?
Why do you, see all my faults and my mistakes?
E F# B
Oh I wish you knew the reason why.

Refrain
Ebm E
Why do we treat each other like we do?
B F#
It’s like we never even try…
Ebm E
Why can’t we get back to the love we knew?
C#m F#-E-Ebm-C#m-B
Oh, why oh… baby why?
B G#m E F#
Why do we, have to play the same old game?
Why do we, run away from whom’s to blame?
Can’t we see, to lose this love would be a shame
E F# B
Oh I wish we knew the reason why…
(Repeat Refrain)
E F# B—G#m—E—F#--
Oh I wish we knew the reason why…(2X)
