Verse:
 ADAA
 Why does she sing her sad songs for me? I'm not the one
 ADAA
 to tenderly bring her soft sympathy.  I've just begun
 EEAA
 to see me way clear and its plain if I stop I should fall.      
 EEAA
 I can lay down a tear for her pain, just a tear and that's all.  

Pre-chorus:
 DAD
 What does she want me to do?  She says that she knows
 EAA
 these moments are rare, I suppose that it's true. 
 DEAA
 Then on she goes to say I don't care, ah, she knows that I do.  

Chorus:
 EEAA
 Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song          
E E A(back to intro)
And who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?

Repeat and enjoy.
