[Intro 1]
[D][C][D][G]
Tell me [C]why, baby?

[Verse 1]
[C]Why,
baby? Why, baby? Why?
You make [G]me cry, baby,
cry, [D]baby, cry, baby, [G]cry
I [C]can't help but love you
'til the day that I die
But tell me [G]why, baby? Why,
[D]baby? Why, [G]baby? Why?

[Verse 2]
[G]
[D]Well, I g[G]ot a crow I wanna pick[D] with you
Just [C]like last time when
the [G]feathers flew
You're running wild a-
kickin' [D]up your heels
A- [C]leavin' me home with a [D]handful of [G]bills
I can't live without you and
you [D]know it's true
But [C]there's no livin' with
you so [G]what'll I do
I'm goin' honky tonkin', get
as [D]tight as I can
And [C]maybe by then,
you'll 'preci[D]ate a good [G]man

[Verse 3]
[G]
Tell me [C]why, baby? Why,
baby? Why, baby? Why?
You make [G]me cry, baby,
[D]cry, [G]baby, [D]cry, baby, cry[G]
I [C]can't help but love you
'til the day that I die
But tell me [G]why, baby? Why, [D]baby? Why,
baby? [G]Why?

[Verse 4]
Well, [G]I don't know but I[D]'ve heard say
That [C]every little dog is gonna [D]have his [G]day
You better pay attention,
don't you [D]dare forget
'Cause [C]I'm just a little baby [D]puppy [G]yet
I caught you honky tonkin' with
[D]my best friend
The [C]thing to do was leave you,
but [D]I should've left [G]then
Now I'm too old to leave
you but [D]I still get sore
When you [C]come home a- feelin'
for the [D]knob on the door
[G]

[Verse 5]
Tell me [C]why, baby? Why,
baby? Why, baby? Why?
You make [G]me cry, baby,
cry, baby, [D]cry, [G]baby, cry
I [C]can't help but love you
'til the day that I die
But tell me [G]why, baby? Why,
[D]baby? Why, baby? [G]Why?
Tell me why, baby? Why,
[D]baby? Why, baby? [G]Why?
