These are the chords for the live be I release of the song. I'm not sure if they work for the album version as well because I haven't tried but I'm sure they're similar. Enjoy! Capo 3 [Intro] D G D [Verse 1] G Your suitcase is gone, with all of your things A D Our old picture frames are empty G I burned all your letters, I took off your ring A But what can I do with these memories Em A G Keeping me up 'til the dawn, hanging on like you're coming back G But you ain't coming back
[Chorus] D So tell me why, baby, why, baby G Why, baby, why won't you let me let go? D I try, baby, try, baby, try G But your love just won't leave me alone Em I can't stop the hurt, numb the pain A Cool the burn, kill the ache D Em No matter how hard that I A7 A Cry, baby, cry D Why, baby, why? [Verse 2] G I close my eyes when I kiss his lips A D Praying this time I won't see you G I'm real good at lying to everyone else A But I just can't lie to myself Em A When the truth is a shadow that follows me G Haunting me just like a ghost, if you're just a ghost [Chorus] D So tell me why, baby, why, baby G Why, baby, why won't you let me let go? D I try, baby, try, baby, try G But your love just won't leave me alone Em I can't stop the hurt, numb the pain C Cool the burn, kill the ache D Em No matter how hard that I A7 A Cry, baby, cry D Why, baby, why? [Bridge] A I saw your taillights fade into the dark C D And my head knows but there's no convincing my heart [Chorus] D Oh why, baby, why, baby G Why, baby, why won't you let me let go? D I try, baby, try, baby, try G But your love just won't leave me alone Em I can't stop the hurt, numb the pain C Cool the burn, kill the ache D Em No matter how hard that I A7 A Cry, baby, cry G You know that I cry D Why, baby, why? G D
