Only God Knows Why

Chords

Standard

E      
I've been sittin here 
                B
Tryin to find myself
               A
I get behind myself
                   E
I need to rewind myself
                 
Lookin for the payback
                  B 
Listen for the playback
               A                         E
They say that every man bleeds just like me
                   
And now I feel like number one
                B
Yet I'm last in line
                    A
I watch my youngest son
                         E
And it helps to pass the time
                                           B
I take too many pills it helps to ease the pain
                      A                          E
I made a couple of dollar bills still I feel the same

Everybody knows my name
                    B
They say it way out loud
               A
A lot of folks fuck me
                         E
It's hard to hang out in crowds
        
I guess that's the price you pay
             D
To be some big shot like I am
A                 
Outskirt stands and one night stands
E                            C#m
Still I can't find love
F#m                                     C#m
And when your walls come tumbling down
       F#m        A        
I will always be around

SOLO: E, B, D, A, E> 2x    C#m
F#m                                     C#m
And when your walls come tumbling down
       F#m        A
I will always be around
E                           B
People don't know about the things I say and do
           D    A                           E
They don't understand about the shit that I've been through
                                  B            
It's been so long since I've been home
          A                          E       
I've been gone....I've been gone for way too long
E                  B
Maybe I forgot all things I miss
              A                             E
Oh somehow I know there's more to life than this

I said it too many times
                  B
And I still stand firm
    A
You get what you put in
                         E
And people get what they deserve
 
Still I ain't seen mine
                D
No I ain't seen mine
          A
I've been giving just ain't been gettin
                            E
I've been walking down that line

So I think I'll keep on walking
        B 
With my head held high
          A                  E
I'll keep moving on and only God knows why
     E            B
Only God.....only God
     A         E
Only God knows why
     E      D        A           E                   D A
Only God....knows....why why why only God knows why
               E               D A
Take me to the river's...edge
               E                     D  A
Take me to the river...hey hey hey
