Why Not Me Teclado

	  





verse 1 

    G                             C 
Why you with your long brown hair flowing 
    D                            G 
And you with your fresh tattooed skin 
    G                    C 
And you from the western Virginia 
           D                  G 
That you’ll never get to see again 

verse 2 
   G                      C 
As darkness descended the desert 
      D                        G 
And a bad actor starred in his play 
    G                           C 
Why you from Tennessee did life capture 
    D                      G 
And me from Tennessee get away 

 
             C                   G 
And when the morning sun hit the mountains 
      C        D                Em 
And a glorious still calmed the breeze 
            C          D       G 
I asked the God of all knowing wisdom 
    C       D       G 
Why you and why not me? 
 



verse 3 
         G                     C 
Yeah the lord is my refuge and fortress 
   D               G 
My god with whom I trust 
         G                  C 
But I’ll never know why the wicked 
        D                   G 
Gets to prey on the best of us 

verse 4 
    G                    C 
Why you full of life and promise 
       D                    G 
At the top of your lungs so loud 
   G                                   C 
My songs that you sang so sweetly will ring 
      D            G 
In my ears forever now 


             C                   G 
And when the morning sun hit the mountains 
      C        D                Em 
And a glorious still calmed the breeze 
            C          D       G 
I asked the God of all knowing wisdom 
    C       D       G 
Why you and why not me? 

          C                             G 
And every morning when the sun hits the mountain 
      C              D         Em 
And a glorious still calms the breeze 
             C      D       G 
I’ll ask the god of my salvation 
    C       D       G 
Why you and why not me? 
    C       D       G 
Why you and why not me?
