Lula Wiles - Dont Ask Why

      [Intro]
Em

[Verse]
G                                   (D)            C
Most days, I wake when the sunshine crawls into my bed
G                       C
Fit as a fiddle when the world wakes up
G                     C
Taking a drink from a golden cup

G                                                    C
Most days, I'm looking on the bright side of an open door
G                      C
Swing your partner and do-si-do
G                          C
My feet keep telling me to go, go, go

[Chorus]
D                               Am
Cross my heart, but I don't ask why
G                            C
Some nights I can't help but cry

G                                              C
Young life, it's fragile as a daisy in an open field
G                                C
With a bit of good luck you're a flower crown
   G                        C
Or else the rain'll come to knock you down

G                                                 C
Bad news, it hit me like a freight train goin' so fast
G                              C
Standin' in the rain where the daisies grow
G                       C
Prayin' to a god that I don't know

[Chorus]
D                               Am
Cross my heart, but I don't ask why
G                            C
Some nights I can't help but cry
D                                      Am   Em
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiide

        C             B7
Put the shovel in the ground
          Em
Don't ask why

[Instrumental]
Am - B7

[Verse]
Em
Don't ask why
Am                                    B7
Whether it's your heart that's broken or your brother's mind
Em                                D
Little sister running home with a blackened eye
        C
I don't ask why, I don't ask why

[Chorus]
D                            Am
Cross my heart and I hope to die
G                            C
Some nights I can't help but cry

         D                             Am   Em
When the trumpet sounds from the other siiiiiiide
        C             B7
Put the shovel in the ground
          Em
Don't ask why

[Instrumental]
Am - B7 - Em
