Because You Can't Be Mine
By Merle Haggard
 
C                                          F
What makes something you can't have always look so good
    C                                   G7
Why does something out of reach seem so fine
     C                                 F
What makes you thrill me more than any girl I know
  C               G7                   C
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
 
    G7                        C      F        C
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me
                                     G7
And be satisfied with what's already mine
     C                            F
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing
  C               G7                   C
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
 
                                  F
What makes me always want a woman I can't have
    C                                 G7
Why does someone else's silver always shine
   C                                 F
My passion rises every time you come around
      C               G7                   C
And I guess it's just because you can't be mine
 
Repeat #2

Classic Country Music Lyrics home | Merle Haggard lyrics

Although it wasn't as popular as many others, it's an excellent song that received few if any spins from Disc Jockeys. We miss a lot of good songs that record labels use as fillers, unless we own the record (CD), we probable won't ever hear it. Copy Because You Can't Be Mine lyrics and chords to help you learn to play and sing it.
