Tell Me Why

C                  Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                C
You ain't living but you do not die
C                Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                 
You ain't laughing but you do not 
C
cry
C
Cry for the young man
Dsus4
Who's fighting for your mind
F
Cry for the old man
C
Who's just passed its time
C                   Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                               C
You ain't living but you do not die

Oh, tell me why...


[Verse]
C                                 
Tell me why the leaves, will they 
  Dsus4
fall with your breath
F                                 
And if the leaves don't fall, they
  C
 leave your breath to rest
C                    Dsus4
Your rebellion puts he up to the 
test
F
To the nation for evaluation
C                           
While she wild with their radio 
Dsus4
station
F                           C
Now I'm done playing their game, oh,
 yeah
C                              
Just searching for shade and you 
          Dsus4               F   
could tie that your tired mind 
                         C
that you break up to the side


[Chorus]
C                  Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                C
You ain't living but you do not die

[Verse 2]
C                           Dsus4
Die with the mass man, the gas 
        F
man, the tax man
C                               
He springs taxes on tax men while 
   Dsus4
reaching out with their own hands
F
Singing to the systematic
C
Static television addict
C
Sitting on your attic
Dsus4                         F  
Can't seem to see all the plastic
         C
 in the water bay
               Dsus4           
You wouldn't want that for your 
      F
daughter babe
C
Technological advances make no 
logical advances
Dsus4                          
Forget what you learned that you 
    F
know that I love for you to


[Chorus]
C                  Dsus4
