David Allan Coe - Only God Knows Why guitar chord

David Allan Coe - Only God Knows Why

Capo 1

E B

I've been sittin?here, tryin?to find myself

A E

Get behind myself, I need to rewind myself.

E B

Lookin?for the payback, listen to the playback

A E

They say that every man bleeds just like me.

E B

And I feel like number one, even when I'm last in line

A E

I hold my youngest son, helps to pass the time.

E B

I take too many pills, tryin?to ease the pain

A E

I made a couple of dollar bills, I still act the same

E B

Everybody knows my name, they yell it way out loud

A E

People try to comfort me, but it's hard to hang out in a crowd

E B

I guess that's the price you pay, to be some big star like I am

A

Outstreched stands and one night stands

E

Still I can't buy love

D A E

No I can’t buy love, no I can’t buy love

C#m B

When it all comes tumbling down

C#m B

I will always be around

E B

People don't know about the things I say and do

A E

They don't understand about the hard times that I've been through

E B

It's been so long, since I've been home

A E

I've been gone now....I've been gone much too long

E B

Maybe I forgot, all things I miss

A E

But in my heart I know there's more to life than this

D A

More to life than this

C#m B

And when it all comes tumbling down

C#m B

I will still be hangin?around

E B

I said it too many times, and I still stand firm

A (electric till last verse)

You get what you put in, givin?these people get what they deserve

E

Givin?them what they deserve

E B

Still I ain't seen light, for days and nights

A E

My life is a stage full of flashing lights

B

People talk about me, but I don’t cry

A E

Just keep on walking, with my head held high

E B E

I can’t lose it all but Only God Knows, Only God Knows Why

D A E

Why, why, why, Only God Knows Why

E B

I've been sittin?here, tryin?to find myself

A E

Get behind myself, I need to rewind myself.
