Why Baby Why

by George Jones  written by Darrell Edwards & George Jones

G       C

Tell me why baby  why baby  why baby why

            G                   D7       G

You make me cry baby  cry baby  cry baby cry

I can't help but love you till the day that I die

           G                 D7       G

So tell me why baby why baby why baby why

D7

well I got a crow I wanna pick with you

     C                       G

Just like last time when the feathers flew

D7

You're running wild a-kicking up your heels

  C                      D7           G

A leaving me home with a hand full of bills

D7

I can't live without you and you know it's true

    C                             G

But there's no living with you so what'll I do

D7

I'm going honky tonking get as tight as I can

    C                         D7           G

And maybe by then you'll appreciate a good man

Tell me why baby why baby  why baby why

            G                  D7       G

You make me cry baby cry baby  cry baby cry

I can't live without you till the day that I die

           G                  D7       G

So tell me why baby why baby  why baby why

D7

Well I don't know but I've heard say

C                         G

Every little dog is gonna have his day

D7

You'd better pay attention don't you dare forget

          C                      D7    G

Cause I'm certainly not a little puppy yet

D7

I caught you honky tonking with my best friend

    C                               G

The thing to do was leave you but I should'a left then

D7

Now I'm too old to leave you but I still get sore

         C                         D7          G

When you come home feeling for the knob on the door
