    Here I sit on this dreadful day,
    Em A7
    Wish things didn’t have to be this way,

    All we ever had, down the drain,
    Em A D
    Washed away by misery and pain.
    C G D C G D
    Why, oh why? Why, oh why?
    Em A7 Em A7
    All the pain that I went through,
    Em A7 Em A7
    All of it because of you.

    As if I had never been a part.
    C G D C G D
    Why, oh why? Why, oh why?

    Hit me with a blow so low.
