verse

C                    G            Am         Am  
He's just a kid who hid inside a hole
C                       G              F         F
His ears could no more hear the story told
C                  G               Am         F
No longer did he wonder of gettin' old
C                   G               C         C
As birds encouraged him on life to hold

chorus

And they said
C                G                 Am        F
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try
C                G                 Am        F
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try
C                G                 E        F
Why, oh why, oh why just one more night
C                G                 C        C
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try

verse

C                    G            Am         Am 
He's just a kid who hid inside a hole
C                       G              F         F
His eyes could no more see the story told
C                  G               Am         F
No longer shivering for fear or cold
C                   G               C         C
As birds encouraged him on life to hold
