F# B Said the lady with the long legs in the lawn chair F# She like the strings on my guitar neck and my C#/F blonde hair D#m A#m I write about her thighs in my latest lines G#m F# I remember her eyes when I asked her why Why would you pay for this apartment you don't belong in? You take this shit from all your bosses and all your boyfriends I guess I get surprised when you let it slide But it's no business of mine how you waste your time Yeah Don't crash, don't text, go renew your tags No sex, no sleep, just that job I bet you miss what you had You can't get no sleep at night Do you ever wonder why everyone is out to get you every day Or do you question anything? How many warnin' signs 'til it hits you, darling? Gravity's your friend You fall out of touch sometime But your history calls you back to it again Too many factors to be sure So many reasons to think twice And nobody asked you to before Chorus: You ever wonder why-y-y-y-y? (Why) B F# C#/F Why-y-y-y-y? Why-y-y-y-y? D#m You ever wonder why-y-y-y-y? (Why) A#m G#m F# Why-y-y-y-y? Why-y-y-y-y? You ever wonder why? Why, why?
