[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] - Adam Schneider, schn0170@maroon.tc.umn.edu
