Because You Can't Be Mine chords by Merle Haggard

Chords with lyrics

C majorC                     FF
What makes something you can't have always look so good

  C majorC                  G7G7
Why does something out of reach seem so fine

   C majorC                 FF
What makes you thrill me more than any girl I know

 C majorC        G7G7          C majorC
I guess it's just because you can't be mine


  G7G7            C majorC   FF    C majorC
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me

                   G7G7
And be satisfied with what's already mine

   C majorC              FF
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

 C majorC        G7G7          C majorC
I guess it's just because you can't be mine

                 FF
What makes me always want a woman I can't have

  C majorC                 G7G7
Why does someone else's silver always shine

  C majorC                 FF
My passion rises every time you come around

   C majorC        G7G7          C majorC
And I guess it's just because you can't be mine


  G7G7            C majorC   FF    C majorC
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me

                   G7G7
And be satisfied with what's already mine

   C majorC              FF
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

 C majorC        G7G7          C majorC
