That Is Why

Chords

C                                G
Today I sat and smoked myself to cancer
                                 C
Thinking about the dancer at the bar
     F            G
Well how was I to know
      E7                   Am
That a crush could just implode
           F                            G
Til it became a grudge eclipsing every star
C                                    G
And yes I know my addictions run the gamut
                                       C
The drugs, the smokes, the booze, the 24
              F               G
But you can't make the turkey colder
  E7              Am
Or skew me less bipolar
       F                             G
Let me list the things about you I abhor
G
Horrible, you're
C        Am
So easy, talk sleazy
E7                            Am
You led me off the plank, and left me queasy
    F           G
And that is why
               C
You can't rock my world
C                                    G
You swore that you were taken when I met you
                                   C
But yes, You did undress me from afar
F             G
A gentle concubine
    E7                  Am
You skipped amongst the mines
       F                            G
Just a product of the endless empty grind
C                                      G
You lack the curve that prove a proper lady
                                      C
A slender slave, with sluttish sleepy eyes
       F            G
Though once I was emoting
E7             Am
And Bono-lyric quoting
       F                              G
I have found another; be my guest and die.
G
With starry eyes, she's
C              Am
Warm-glancing, entrancing
E7                                Am
And now I'm through with all your sick, sad ranting
    F          G
And that is why
               C
You can't rock my world
C
I've lost you...
Am
Now I glide through the silky sky
C
It's so blue
Am
You're just a muse, that is why
C
So screwed
Am
Cadaver gone blue, this has died
         C                 Am
Your machine is broken and green
          F                      C
And now I see right through your lies
     C           Am
with ripe wonder,

I plunder,
E7                          Am
the village now I know that I become her.
F               G
And That is why 

You can't rock my--
E7      Am
That is whyyy
F           G
That is why
                                         G     C
You'll never ever in a Goddamn millenium be my girl
      C                       Am
Watch frozen stars on the way home
        C                            Am
I watch frozen stars on the way back home
        C                       Am
I watch frozen stars on the way home
        C                                     Am
I watch frozen stars burn out on the way back home!
