Why Me

A   E   A


[Verse]
A                                                D
I met her in a night club over on the lower east side
          E                                               A
I was workin' with my head down tryin' to keep the groove alive
 A                                     D
She looked like a bunny out of Playboy magazine
         A                          E                     A
I just had to meet her; she was the cutest thing I'd ever seen

A                                                 D
She had high heel boots, blonde hair and big blue eyes
                               E                 A
The way she was movin' to the music had me hypnotized
A                                         D
I ran up to her, said, "Baby, what's your name?"
Continues after the ad
A                                 E                  A
I should've know better; now I've only got myself to blame


[Chorus]
A             D
Why, why, why me?
E                                          A
Fallin' like this is the very last thing I need
A                                                       D
If I had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and leave
         A
I said why, why, why me?


[Verse]
A                                                 D
Started drinkin' champagne, makin' every joint in town
E                                           A
Bam! A hundred dollars every time I turned around
A                                                       D
'bout the time my money ran out, you know, my honey was gone
A                            E                        A
And I was cryin' out loud to myself, as I was walkin' home


[Chorus]
A             D
Why, why, why me?
E                                          A
Fallin' like this is the very last thing I need
A                                                       D
If I had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and leave
         A
I said why, why, why me?
