Why I Dont Know

A Dm


[Verse]
A
Was it the champagne
    Dm     A
Was it the caviar
       E
Was it her airplane
           A
Was it her daddy's car
           D
Was it the new thing
     A
With all the dough
             E
Why, I don't know
              A    Dm
I just had to go

A
Was that the yacht club
   Dm     A
Or just a fishing boat
           E
Was that a leg of lamb
           A
Or was it billy goat
           D
Was that a snail, baby
   A
Or escargot
             E
Why, I don't know
              A Dm
I just had to go

[Chorus]
D
I'm just a poor boy
          A
I like to have fun
         E                  A
I know a pretty girl when I see one
              D
I've seen the real thing
    A
The imitation, too, baby
E
So don't go telling me what to do


[Verse]
           A
Was that a beer joint
       Dm       A
Or was that the country club
        E
Were we fooling around
          A
Or was it truly love
           D
Was that a foreign film
    A
Or just a show
             E
Why, I don't know
              A Dm
I just had to go


[Chorus]
D
I'm just a poor boy
          A
I like to have fun
         E                  A
I know a pretty girl when I see one
              D
I've seen the real thing
    A
The imitation, too, baby
E
So don't go telling me what to do

             A
So keep your champagne
    Dm         A
And keep your caviar
              E
And fly your airplane
         A
To your daddy's car
              D
And so you'll understand
              A
I'll tell you slow
             E
Why, I don't know
              A Dm
I just had to go
             A
Why, I don't know
             E
Why, I don't know
              A Dm
I just had to go
             A
Why, I don't know
             E
Why, I don't know
              A Dm
Why, I don't know
