[Intro]
Em
[Verse]
G (D) C
Most days, I wake when the sunshine crawls into my bed
G C
Fit as a fiddle when the world wakes up
G C
Taking a drink from a golden cup
G C
Most days, I'm looking on the bright side of an open door
G C
Swing your partner and do-si-do
G C
My feet keep telling me to go, go, go
[Chorus]
D Am
Cross my heart, but I don't ask why
G C
Some nights I can't help but cry
G C
Young life, it's fragile as a daisy in an open field
G C
With a bit of good luck you're a flower crown
G C
Or else the rain'll come to knock you down
G C
Bad news, it hit me like a freight train goin' so fast
G C
Standin' in the rain where the daisies grow
G C
Prayin' to a god that I don't know
[Chorus]
D Am
Cross my heart, but I don't ask why
G C
Some nights I can't help but cry
D Am Em
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiide
C B7
Put the shovel in the ground
Em
Don't ask why
[Instrumental]
Am - B7
[Verse]
Em
Don't ask why
Am B7
Whether it's your heart that's broken or your brother's mind
Em D
Little sister running home with a blackened eye
C
I don't ask why, I don't ask why
[Chorus]
D Am
Cross my heart and I hope to die
G C
Some nights I can't help but cry
D Am Em
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiiiide
C B7
Put the shovel in the ground
Em
Don't ask why
[Instrumental]
Am - B7 - Em
