 ARTIST: The Cascades
 COMPOSER: J.Gummee
 
 Intro: C Am (2x)
 
            C            Am      
 There's a reason for a snowfall,
    C            Am         
 A reason why a tree's tall,
    C            Am       C-C7 
 A reason why a star is bright.
    F              Dm        
 A reason why the moon glows,
    C              Dm        
 A reason why the wind blows,
    C               Am      C    
 A reason why it's dark at night.
 
 Chorus:
        G            F            
 But I don't know why I should cry
 G                 F          
 Just because you said goodbye
        C         Am    Dm(7) 
 There must be a reason,
     G             C  
 I?d like to know why.
    Am   Dm(7)              G 
 Oh why, oh I?d like to know
 
            C            Am     
 There's a reason for a sunbeam,
     C           Am      
 A reason for a daydream,
     C             Am      C-C7 
 A reason why the desert's dry.
     F            Dm         
 A reason why a stream falls,
    F                 Dm       
 A reason why there's rainbows,
    C            Am     C  
 A reason for a cloudy sky.
 
 (Repeat Chorus Except Last 2 Lines)
 
      G            C-F-C-C7 
 I'd like to know why.
 
 Bridge:
 
        F               Em           
 There was a time when I could smile,
      F                 Em      
 We'd sit and talk of us awhile,
  F             Em          
 Times I never got your love
       D                G     F  
 And thanked my lucky stars above
 
 (Repeat 1st Stanza & Chorus)

 I'd like to know why (why, oh,
