πΈ Verse 1:
Fm
Fat Chance Dupree
C#
Had it in for me
C Fm
The cause of which I never could divine
Well they say it had to be
C#
Some kind of fear or jealousy
C Fm
Anyhow, I did not see it at the time
πΈ Verse 2:
Fm
Now Fat Chance Dupree
C#
Was a trapper same as me
C Fm
Could have been a reason I suppose
Fm
In the winter he'd come down
C#
From his mountain hunting grounds
C Fm
But I never wanted any part of those
πΈ Chorus:
Fm D#
But who knows why
G#
I wish I knew

We feel the things we feel

Do the things we do

But who knows why

I wish I knew

We feel the things we feel
Fm
Do the things we do
πΈ Verse 3:
Fm
Kitty Mary used to come around
C#
The most beautiful woman in town
C Fm
We'd keep each other happy now and then
She did let fall that Chance Dupree
C#
Might try to waylay me
C Fm
In the cottonwoods down by the river bend
C#
I thought Come on if you're comin'
G#
Come on Fats
C#
Come on if you're comin'
C
Good luck with that
πΈ Verse 4:
Fm
Now Fat Chance Dupree
C#
Was lying in wait for me

Which I took to be considerable unkind
I took his weapon from his hand
C#
Which made him understand
C Fm
He should not have took the path he had in mind
πΈ Chorus:
Fm D#
But who knows why
G#
I wish I knew

We feel the things we feel
Fm
Do the things we do
D#
Yeah who knows why

I wish I knew
C7
We feel the things we feel
Fm
Do the things we do
