Whywhywhy

              D
I turn up my speakers
So I can drown my thoughts just a 
            G
little bit quicker
Dancing barefoot in the dead of 
 D
winter
So I can numb this heart that's full
      G
 of splinters


[Verse 2]
          D
They say time heals
All wounds but these clocks are at a
      G
 standstill
And I'm counting every second that 
  D
you're not here
                             G
But only in my dreams do you appear


[Pre-Chorus]
      A                      G
Am I allowed to lay down my smile
         A                  G
And be bitter just for a while?


[Chorus]
 D                                 
    Don't keep pulling me under, we
                     A
 were meant to stay afloat
I see all the embers, they've not 
                     Bm
yet lost all their glow
Could you try to take a look into my
  G
 eyes
         N.C.                     D
And tell me why oh why why why?
                    G
Why oh why why why?
           A
Why oh why?

[Verse 3]
                 D
I close all the windows
Draw the curtains hoping that the 
 G
sun knows
                              D
All I see is you when the day glows
Reminding me that you are just a 
 G
shadow


[Verse 4]
       D
When I wake
For a split second in time, my heart
         G
 does not ache
Thinking you'll be next to me, then 
  D
I shake
                                  G
To see an empty bed and all over I 
brake


[Pre-Chorus]
      A                     G
Am I allowed to lay down my smile
       A                  G
And be bitter just for a while?


[Chorus]
 D                                 
    Don't keep pulling me under, we
                     A
 were meant to stay afloat
I see all the embers, they've not 
                    Bm
yet lost all their glow
Could you try to take a look into my
  G
 eyes
         N.C.                     D
And tell me why oh why why why?


[Bridge]

 D                                 
   I should have known when you 
  Em
were grinding your teeth
               Bm
(I should have known)
                          A        
That you were hiding your feelings 
          D
from me, oh
 D                                 
   I should have known when you 
  E
were tossing in your sleep
               G
(I should have known)
                          A
That you were hiding your feelings 
from me


[Chorus]
 D                                 
    Don't keep pulling me under, we
                    A
 were meant to stay afloat
I see all the embers, they've not 
                   Bm
yet lost all their glow
Could you try to take a look into my
  G
 eyes
         N.C.                     D
And tell me why oh why why why?


[Chorus]
 D                                 
    Don't keep pulling me under, we
                    A
 were meant to stay afloat
I see all the embers, they've not 
                   Bm
yet lost all their glow
Could you try to take a look into my
  G
 eyes
         N.C.                     D
And tell me why oh why why why?
                    G
Why oh why why why?
           A
Why oh why why why?
