TELL ME WHY (by Karla Bonoff; recorded by Wynonna Judd)
-------------------------------------------------------
[Actually in Eb; play in D and capo 1, or play in C and capo 3.]
[Each chord is one measure, except "G - D" is one measure total.]
[In the parts that go D G-D A A, play a short G right before the first D;
 I marked it with parentheses here.]

D    G - D    A    A    (G) D    G - D    A    A    (G)
[intro]
D    G - D    A    A    (G) D    G - D    A    A
[intro]

Bm                    Bm       Em7   Em7
Everywhere I look the sun is shining
Bm                      Bm      A   A
But it's always raining here inside
Bm7    Bm7                 G        G
I can see you really had a hold on me
       D                     D                 A   A
It's a mean old love, with a flame that never dies

             (G)  D    G - D   A   A
Won't you tell me why- yi- yi- yiy
          (G)   D    G - D   A   A
I can't say goodbye- yi- yi- yiy

Everywhere I go you're in my shadow
When I turn around there's no one there
And it's a real bad sign, I'm walking on a real thin line
The fool in love with the fool that never cared

So won't you tell me why-yi-yi-yiy
I can't say goodbye-yi-yi-yiy
Won't you tell me why-yi-yi-yiy

C              C                     G            G
Ask anyone you know, and they'll say love fades away
    Em             D/F#          G      A
But this heart's crying just like yesterday

[guitar solo, same chords as chorus]

And it's a real bad sign, I'm walking on a real thin line
The fool in love, the fool that never cared

So won't you tell me why-yi-yi-yiy
I won't say goodbye-yi-yi-yiy
Won't you tell me why-yi-yi-yiy
I can't say goodbye-yiyiyiyi-yiy

[instrumental, same chords as chorus; repeat and fade]
