G
Why... 
               D/F#
Why did you go wasting your time on me 
G         D/F#      Em
You're so beautiful now 
        G              D/F#      Em
There's so much that's left for you now 
    G
O, yeah, babe 

G
And why... 
               D/F#
Why did you go flashing those eyes at me 
    G              D/F#      Em
You know that I am eager to please 
     G           D/F#        Em
I've always been eager to please 
    G
O, yeah, babe 
 
     Em                    G
Well I, I've got a lot to say 
          Em    D/F#                C/G   G
And I am scared, that you're gonna slip away 
    Em                               G
And you, you've got this white-eyed gaze 
       Em   D/F#             C/G          G
And a smile, that you carry through your days 
 
    Em      D/F#
O, Why-y-y, 
    C/G    G
O, Why-y-y-y 
         Em         D/F#
It's the easiest way,  
    C/G           G
To know you're a liar 
        Em               D/F#
And the beauty you heard 
          C/G               G
I see you talking with her hands 
        Em                     D/F#
Well I don't think she knows 
          C/G            G
How she changed all my plans 
 
G
And why 
                D/F#
Why did you go wasting your youth on me 
G         D/F#      Em
You're so beautiful now 
        G              D/F#         Em
There's so much that's left for you now 
     G
Oh, yeah, babe 

G
And why 
               D/F#
We look at the faces on your bedroom wall. 
      G        D/F#       Em
Well, nobody's perfect at all. 
G            D/F#            Em
Sometimes it makes you feel small. 
     G
Oh, yeah, babe 

     Em                    G
Well I, I've got a lot to say 
          Em    D/F#                C/G   G
And I am scared, that you're gonna slip away 
    Em                               G
And you, you've got this white-eyed gaze 
       Em   D/F#             C/G          G
And a smile, that you carry through your days 

    Em      D/F#
O, Why-y-y, 
    C/G    G
O, Why-y-y-y 
         Em         D/F#
It's the easiest way,  
    C/G           G
To know you're a liar

How she changed all my plans 

    Em                          D/F#
The things that I thought would last 
              C/G             G
Well, they're fading, they're fading 
    Em                  D/F#
The feelings, I used to have 
              C/G               G
Well, they're changing, they're changing 

    Em                          D/F#

Well, they're changing, they're changing, they're changing now. 
              Em                D/F#
              C/G               G
Well, they're changing, they're changing, they're changing now.
