Verse 1 
C                   Am                            C 
Escaping nights without you with shadows on the wall 
                   G                         C 
My mind is running wild tryin hard not to fall 
                        Am                           C 
You told me that you love me but say I’m just a friend 
                   G 
my heart is broken up into pieces 

        C                     G 
Cos i know i’ll never free my soul 
                 Am                       F 
it’s trapped between true love and being alone 
                   C                       G 
When my eyes are closed the greatest story told 
               Am                               F 
I woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor 


C                   G 
Why oh why tell me why not me 
Am                  F 
Why oh why we were meant to be 
     C                 G 
Baby i know i could be all you need 
Am             F 
Why oh why oh why 
         C 
I wanna love you 
    G                       Am 
if you only knew how much i love you 
    F 
So why not me 


Verse 2 {repeat the same chords as above!} 

The day after tomorrow I’ll still be around 
To catch you when you fall and ever let you down 
you say that we’re forever our love will never end 
I’ve tried to come up but it’s drowning me to know 
you’ll never feel my soul 
It’s trapped between true love and being alone 
when my eyes are closed the greatest story told 
i woke and my dreams are shattered here on the floor 

Chorus repeated 

C             G 
You won’t ever know 
Am             F 
How far we can go 
C             G 
You won’t ever know 
Am             F 
How far we can go (go) 

Why oh why tell me why not me 
why oh why we were meant to be 
Baby I know I could be all you need 
Why oh why oh why 

Why oh why tell me why not me 
Why oh why we were meant to be 
Baby I know I could be all you need 
Why oh why oh why oh why 

I wanna love you 
If you only knew how much I love you 
so why not me 
(why not me, why not me) 

Chorus repeated
