Tom: C
Intro.: Am F Am F
Am F
I’ve been waiting for so long for this moment to come
Am F
I’ve been wondering the day I would see you
G Am
And touch you again, and when I get you in my arms
F G Am
Kiss your lips and go back to the start
(Bridge)
Dm Am
But life’s played tricks on me
G
By the time I was out of here
(Chorus)
F Am
So please tell me why you couldn’t wait?
F Am
Please tell me why now I can’t stay
F Am
Please tell me why it needed to be this way
Dm
Even if I’ve been too far away
Em
Baby you know I’d never leave you a shame
(Intro.:) ( Am F ) 4X
Am F
And now I’m holding on in line
Am F
Waiting my turn to find a place to hide
G Am
'cause you couldn’t keep inside everything you promised me
F G Am
I thought I’d never die, you lied I can’t believe it
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
F Am
So please tell me why you couldn’t wait?
F Am
Please tell me why now I can’t stay
F Am
Please tell me why it needed to be this way
Dm
Even if I’ve been too far away
Em
Baby you know I’d never leave you a shame
(SOLO)… Am F Am F E Am F G

Why… Why… Why…
