Tom: G#m

E             B         G#m    B           E         B         G#m      B
How much more miserable must I make myself to keep myself from selling out?
    E       B        G#m     B          E           B       G#m      B
Cuz feeling good can feel so forced and I’m not the type to try that hard, ahh.

E  B  G#m  B  x2

[Verse 1]
E         B          G#m    B          E        B        G#m       B
Boredom belittles me with a yawn as if tempting me to do something more.
     E       B           G#m     B       E        B      G#m      B
Than sit and smoke, than sit and smoke, out of my mind I like to float.

[Interlude]
E  B  G#m  F# x2

[Chorus]
      E      B      G#m      F#
And I wonder why

E      B      G#m      F#
Wonder why

E      B      G#m       F#
Wonder why it has to be like this.

E      B           D#   E
What a way, what a way to exiiiiiiiiist.

[Interlude]
E  B  G#m  B  x2

[Verse 2]
    E        B         G#m          B              E            B      G#m         B
And it’s the moon that makes it all different. I’m lost for the second time since sunset.
    E          B       G#m      B        E           B          G#m      B
But I’ll never grow so old as I did last winter when you sat me down and said.

E  B  G#m  B  x2

[Verse 2]
       E        B     G#m     B    E      B        G#m     B
And it seems to me to all just be: women, wine and wishful thinking.
     E        B              G#m      B         E      B         G#m      B
It’s all just instinct, it’s all just instinct. Fight, flight or stop and think.

[Interlude]
E  B  G#m  F# x2

[Chorus]
      E      B      G#m      F#
And I wonder why it has to be like this.
E      B           G#m    F#
What a way, what a way to exist.
  E      B      G#m      F#
I wonder why,
  E      B      D#      E
I wonder why.

[Interlude]
E  B  F# x4

[Ending]
E          B            G#m        B
Lucy never liked me, so I sit with Emily.
    E     B     G#m     B
Who never talks enough,
        E      B       G#m       B
cuz she always talks too much.
