verse

C5                    G5            A5         A5  
He's just a kid who hid inside a hole
C5                       G5              F5         F5
His ears could no more hear the story told
C5                  G5               A5         F5
No longer did he wonder of gettin' old
C5                   G5               C5         C5
As birds encouraged him on life to hold

chorus

And they said
C5                G5                 A5        F5
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try
C5                G5                 A5        F5
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try
C5                G5                 E5        F5
Why, oh why, oh why just one more night
C5                G5                 C5        C5
Why, oh why, oh why you don't even try

C5                       G5              F5         F5
His eyes could no more see the story told
C5                  G5               A5         F5
No longer shivering for fear or cold

As birds encouraged him on life to hold
