I Wonder Why
Intro: D
D G D D
Last night my baby told me that she loved me so
D G D D
She told me that she cared, and that she'd never go
D A A
But to-day, she passed me by
G G
Never even said the reason why
G D A A /
And I-I-I, I-I-I, I-I-I
D D
(I wonder) why
D G D D
Ohhhhh I try to see that girl I call her on the phone
D G D D
But always when I go she's, never, at home
D A A
And when, she passed me by
A G G
She made me feel like I wanna cry
G D A A /
And I-I-I, I-I-I, I-I-I
D D G
(I wonder) why
G G
I wonder why, she don't talk to me
G A A D
I don't wanna ever, set her free-eee-eee
D G D D
I'm gonna find my pretty girl and make her mine
D G D D
But until then I'll keep on searchin' all the time
A A
I just don't, under-stand
G G
Why she wouldn't hold my hand
G D A A /
And I-I-I, I-I-I, I-I-I
D D G
(I wonder) why
G G
I wonder why, she don't talk to me
G A A D
I don't wanna ever, set her free-eee-eee
D G D D
I'm gonna find my pretty girl and make her mine
D G D D
But until then I'll keep on searchin' all the time
A A
I just don't, under-stand
G G
Why she wouldn't hold my hand
G D A A /
And I-I-I, I-I-I, I-I-I
D D
(I wonder) why
D D D7 /
Why, oh yeah, why, oh oh, why
