George Jones - Why Baby Why guitar chord

Why Baby Why

(As performed by George Jones) (1955)

(Chorus)

G C

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why

G D G

You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby

C

Lord, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die

G D G

So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why

D

Well I got a crow I wanna pick with you

C G

Just like last time when the feathers flew

D

You're runnin' wild kickin' up your heels

C D G

A-leavin' me home with a hand full of bills

D

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

C G

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

D

I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as I can

C D G

And maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good man

Repeat Chorus

D

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

C G

That ever' little dog is a-gonna have his day

D

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

C D G

'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yet

D

Well, I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend

C G

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

D

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

C D G

When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door

Repeat Chorus
