[Intro]
G Cadd9 G Dsus4/F#
[Verse 1]
G
I woke up again this mornin’
Cadd9
To the sun shining on my face
G
The birds outside are singin’
Dsus4/F#
And everything is in place
G
I got a quite strong feeling
Cadd9
That today’s gonna be great
G
So I stepped out my house
Em7
and fell out the clouds
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
‘Cause I saw you walking by
But my question is ...
[Chorus]
G
Why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You’re so beautiful, such a pretty thing
G
But why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You knockin’ me out, I hear the angels sing
Em C
I don’t wanna be without you anymore
G D
‘Cause you make me feel like I’m a king
Em C
And I got only one question in my mind:
G N.C.
Why are you wearing a ring?
[Verse 2]
G
I follow you step by step
Cadd9
Through every street you’re going on
G
To the small Cafe right by the park
Dsus4/F#
And I thought my time has come
G
To talk to you and ask you out
Cadd9
So that you could be mine
G
But I felt insecure
Em7
And I wasn’t so sure
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
‘Cause I saw that shimmery shine
And my question is ...
[Chorus]
G
Why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You’re so beautiful, such a pretty thing
G
But why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You knockin’ me out, I hear the angels sing
Em C
I don’t wanna be without you anymore
G D
‘Cause you make me feel like I’m a king
Em C
And I got only one question in my mind:
G N.C. G G/F#
Why are you wearing a ring?
[Bridge]
F
Is it just a decoration?
C
Are you really married?
G
I wish that I could be your man
G
I wish that I could have it
F
Should I really talk to you
C
Or should I better not?
G
I’m thinkin’ back and forth
G G
And I don’t know what’s the plot
So my question is ...
F C G G
F C G G G
[Chorus]
G
Why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You’re so beautiful, such a pretty thing
G
But why are you wearing a ring?
Cadd9 Dsus4/F#
You knockin’ me out, I hear the angels sing
Em C
I don’t wanna be without you anymore
G D
‘Cause you make me feel like I’m a king
Em C
And I got only one question in my mind:
G N.C. G N.C.
Why are you wearing a ring?
