B5      Ab5   E5                 F#5                      
Why do I, choose the things I choose?
Why do I, always find some lame excuse?
Why do I, not realize what I would do?
E5                   F#5      B?Abm?E?F#5
Oh I wish I knew the reason why.

B5       Ab5  E5                        F#5    
Why do you, get that sad look in your face?
Why do you, pull away from my embrace?
Why do you, see all my faults and my mistakes?
E5                      F#5     B5
Oh I wish you knew the reason why.

Refrain
Eb5                                E5
Why do we treat each other like we do?
B5                       F#5
It?s like we never even try?
Eb5                          E5
Why can?t we get back to the love we knew?
C#5              F#5 - E5 - Eb5 - C#5 - B5           
Oh, why oh? baby why?


B5     Ab5  E5                         F#5                     
Why do we, have to play the same old game?
Why do we, run away from who's to blame?
Can?t we see, to lose this love would be a shame
E5                    F#5      B5 
Oh I wish we knew the reason why?
(Repeat Refrain)
E                     F#     B?G#m?E?F#--
Oh I wish we knew the reason why?(2X)
