  			( G ) 
It's pointless to explain why 
There's nothing I can say	      
My words would all be meaningless      
Anyway				  

( G ) 
It seems I can't be trusted	   
And I don't disagree		      
What made you ever think I really     
Wanted to be			    

G 
I can't explain why 
A#		 C 
And I don't know when 
G		  A# 
I'm ever going to want to 
C	D 
See her again 

( G ) 
So don't ask why I came here		 
There's nothing I can say		   
I don't think I'll be staying very long	  
Anyway					 

( G ) 
I'm trying to find out why	  
I came here at all		    
I don't think it was to see you	   
After all
