Why Can't You Be

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[Am]Are you frightened by the
weight you possess
[C]Or is this lie just weightlessness
[G]Smoggy twilight in L.A.
I [D]can't think of [G]one real thing to say
[Am]And Robbie Williams is
walking in the canyons
[C]Forgets that we were friends
I guess it [G]all depends on your mood
Why can't [D]these med's be
[G]any damn good

[Verse 2]
And [Am]she said,
Why can't you be like my [C]wa
ter pick shower massager
A [G]sweet reliable ma[D]chine
And to tell the truth
I don't [Am]feel less alone
My [C]water massagers
The purest love I've ever [G]known
[Am]Why can't you be,
[C]like when I was thirteen
[G]He said

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Why can't you be
Like an [C]art house foreign movie
Frank [G]and sexy red balloons and ennui
[D]And[G] aloof to me [D]and
[Am]Why can't you be,
[C]a little more of a mystery

[Verse 4]
[G]Why can't you be
The [Am]part of me that's missing
Instead of leav[C]ing me for some other
Say we're per[G]fect for each other
An[F]d we won't spend t[Am]his life
[G]Alone

[Verse 5]
She [Am]said,
Why can't you be
Like and [C]out sourced government contract
And I'm a fat [G]cat getting
away with [D]anything
Kicking some secret spe
[Am]cial powers
Illumination [C]rounds in showers

[Verse 6]
'Cause your [G]tearing our hair out
When we could [D]have a bed of flowers

[Verse 7]
[Am]Why can't you be
Like the [C]chicks out on the road
Some [Am]girls are [G]happy just to see me

[Verse 8]
Cause you got mox[Am]ie
and a broken nose
You take em away [C]from this prose
Sometimes a blow [G]job's not enough
[Am]Why can't you [C]play

[Interlude 1]
A little less rough
[G][Am][C]
[G][F][Am]
[G][Gsus4][G]

[Verse 9]
Can [F]we, [Am]just leave[G] it be
We could [F]live [C]our lives
Sep[G]arately
Could you for[F]get
What [C]hap[Am]pens [C]to
[G]you and me
When we're [F]dead
And [Am]we'll be dead
We'll have [G]eternity
And I will spend it [F]all
[Am]Missing [G]you and me
So while I'm [F]alive[Am][F][Am]
[C]I will a[G]lways be
[F]Seeking you out, wondering [C]about
How'd we go so far [Am]down
And what's do [G]wrong with you and me

[Verse 10]
[Am]Why can't you be,
someone [C]looking a little deeper into me
[G]Like J.D. Sallenger,

[Verse 11]
Why do I [D]challenge her
In all the surface [Am]ways that you displease
Why [C]can't you be a little [G]more at ease

[Verse 12]
[Am]Why can't you be,
like a [C]hand rolled cigarette
I'm not joking
[G]This masochistic, sel[D]f- pity of smoking
[Am]And this silly ditty that [C]keeps provoking you
To leave [G]me

[Verse 13]
[Am]Why can't you be like a
[C]candle I can snuff
You're still a dia[G]mond
in the rough
And I swear [D]to god I've had enough
[Am]How can I[C]
Call your bluff
