DON’T KNOW WHY

Key: Bb

-3* -7  -6  -6 -5 -55  -3* -3*
I  wait-ed till I saw  the sun 
3  -3*   -5   5 -3*-3*  5   -5 
I Don't know why I did-n't come 
-3* -7  -6 -6-5 -5  -5  -3* -3* 
I  left you by the house of fun 
3  -3*   -5 5-3*-3* -3*  5   -5
I Don't know why I  did-n't come 
-3* -3*  -5   5 -3* -3*  5   -5
I Don't know why I  did-n't come 

 -7 -6 -6-5 -5  -5  -3* -3*5
When I saw the break of day 
3  -3*    -5 5-3* -3* -3* 5 -5
I wished that I could fly a-way 
   -7  -6  -6   -5  -6 -5  -3*
‘Stead of kneel-ing in the sand 
 -3*  -5  5-3*  -3* -3* 5-3*-3*
Catch-ing tear-drops in my hand 

3   -7*  -7*  -7    -77-6 -6
My heart is drenched in wine 
 3   -7*  -7* -7 -77-6 -6 -5* -5 5
But you'll be on  my mind for-ev-er 

-7 -6  -6   -5  -6   -5  -3*
Out a-cross the end-less sea 
-3* -5   5 -3* -3* 5  -5
I would die in ec-sta-sy 
-7   -6 -6-5-5-55 -3* -3*
But I'll be a bag of bones 
-3*  -5  5-3*  3  -3*  5  -3*
Driv-ing down the road a-lone 
3   -7*  -7*   -7   -7-6 -6
My heart is drenched in wine 
 3   -7*  -7* 8 -77-6 -6 7-5-5-5*5
But you'll be on my mind for-ev-er 

 -7   -6   -6  -5  -55 -3* -3*
Some-thing has to make you run 
3  -3*   -5 5-3*-3*-3*  5   -5
I Don't know why I did-n't come 
-3* -7 -6 -6  -5 -5-3* -3*
I Feel as emp-ty as a drum 
3  -3*   -5 5-3*-3*-3*  5   -5
I Don't know why I did-n't come 
-3* -3*  -5 5-3*-3*-3*  5   -5
I Don't know why I did-n't come 
7-7*7-6 7    -5 5-55-3*-3*  5  -3*
I     Don't know why I did-n't come 
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
