          G
A lotta love, a lotta luck
and you and me it seems
will always be together
it took a while, a little smile
in the good times, bad times
                   D7
any kind of weather

D7                                          G
It doesn't matter what the funny people said
                                         D7
All that matters is the trouble up ahead
                                       G
I didn't ever see it come into the way

The Sunday papers as I'm lying in my bed

Chorus:
C
Why why why
                 G
why couldn't we see
C       A7
my old ways
               D
keep troubling me

I gotta look, I wanna see
And if the heebie-jeebies
Have it all together
I caught a bug and you believe
You know the Bee Gees
Said it wasn't very clever

Another day, another night, another call
Another way, another fight, another brawl
It doesn't matter 'cause I know we've got it all
Another day, another shop, another mall

Chorus:
Why why why
Why couldn't we see
My old ways
Keep troubling me

It doesn't matter what the funny people said
All that matters is the trouble up ahead
I didn't ever see it come into the way
The Sunday papers as I'm lying in my bed

Chorus:
Why why why
Why couldn't we see
My old ways
Keep troubling me
