Why Cant You Be

D                       Bm
You and your element of dangerous
A                     F#m
Cheatin' death like a stranger but
D7                         D7/C
Devils got your shirt tail clutched
       Ab7         G7
In the palm of his hand
F#7
Double vodka on the rocks
             Bm
On a plastic tray
F#7
Never fails you but it won't
                Bm             B7
Take the hours away, hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               E9      Bb7
  It's plain to see you drive
         A7             B
Yourself crazy

E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               E9
  It's plain to see you're
    Bb7  A7
The only enemy


[Verse]
D                             Bm
  You got some stories you're afraid
 to tell
A                      F#m
  Tired of living in a shotgun shell
Continúa después del anuncio
D7                         D7/C   
  Headin' west to find the edge of
 Ab7    G7
 life itself
F#7                            
  Last I heard there were angels 
                 Bm
walking in Los Angeles
F#7
  With their hands in their pockets 
lookin' cool like
Bm          B7
me, he, he, he


[Chorus]
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               E9      Bb7
  It's plain to see you drive
         A7             B
Yourself crazy

E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               C#m
  Why can't you be
E               E9
  It's plain to see you're
    Bb7  A7
The only enemy

  Scared of lovin' cause it might

A                             F#m
  You want to get it like you know

D7                           D7/C
  What the hell's wrong with 
       Ab7     G7

   You stand convicted,     you 
stand accused
