Oh, I wish I knew the rea-son why.

 4    4  4   -5   5   -4   4   -3  4   4 
Why, do you wish you knew the rea-son why,

 6   6  6    6     5   -4 4   -4   5  5
Why do we, treat each oth-er like we do,

 4    -4  5   -5 5  -4 4  -3b
It's like we nev-er e-ven try,

 6    6   6    6   5   -4  4    -4  5   5
Why can't we, get back to the love we knew,

Oh I wish we knew the reason why




(plays as verse 1)
Why do you, get that sad look on your face,
Why do you, pull away from my embrace,
Why do you, see all my faults and my mistakes
Oh, I wish you knew the reason why,


Yeah, Yeah

ENJOY!!!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
