Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][Gm][C][Eb][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
[C]There's a time
I felt I was blessed To be loved by [G]you
[C]But those blessings turn to regret from all
the [F]things you put me through
[C]I remember at night you used to hold
me till the sun rose [G]the next day
[C]Now you sleep and just turn away
while [F]my heart is on display

[Verse 2]
And I say
[C][Chorus: x2]
Why should I cry one more night?
Why [G]should [C]I smile when
it hurts inside?
[Bb]Why does my heart say,
[C]get up and walk away
[Am]Why do I s[Gsus4]tay?
[C][G][C][G][C]
[Bb]Why, [C]why[F], why[Gsus4]

[Verse 3]
[C]There's a reason why I
cry every day
There's a reason why things
don't go [G]your way
[C]There's a reason why
I kneel down in pray
[F]There's a reason why
[Bb]I'm still [Gsus4]around today
[C]Can't you see that I'm
hurtin' eternally?
I need affection and good Lord therapy
I need you know as an urgent delivery
[F]To get rid of the [Bb]pain [Gsus4]in side of me[C]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][Bb][C]
[F][Gsus4][C][G][C][Bb]
[C][F][F]

[Verse 4]
[Gm][Chorus: x2]
Why should I put up lies?
[Bbm]Am I afraid to say goodbye?
[Bb]I've [F]loved you so, baby I can't deny
But [D]now it's time to dry my eyes
[Gm]It's Hard to think of what was changed
[Bbm]when I feel like it was all [Bb]in vain
[F]Can't be right and feel this wrong
[Dm]This heart of mine is just
[Gm][Chorus: x3]
