Tuning: standard

 C                  F
 How, how can it be?
            C                              G
 How can it be you still love him and not me?
         C                         F
 Does it really add up mathematically?
 C                  G
 How, how can it be?

             C                              F
 Because I'm thinking of how I made you laugh
         C                               G
 And I'm thinking of the love that we had
         C                         F
 And I'm saying it's a matter of time
         C                            G
 How long 'till you remember you're mine?


                  Am                                           F
 It don't make it true just 'cause it's where you've been sighted
                  Am                                     F
 It don't make it true just 'cause it's what you've decided
           C               F               G               F
 Oh it's the logic that's wrong, why are you there for so long?
            C              F            G           F
 I just can see nothing else except for you and myself


    C                 F
 So How, how can it be?
            C                              G
 How can it be you still love him and not me?
         C                          F
 Does it really make sense logically?
             C                           G
 And does it really make you happy to see


              C                              F
 That now I'm with someone beautiful and cool
         C                                G
 And she seems to think the world of me too
           C                                 F
 And we're laughing as we stroll up the street
         C                                G
 Until I take her to that joint where I eat


             Am                         F
 But why are you here now in my restaurant
            Am                            F
 And you're with the only one that you want
      C               F          G              F
 So I won't be eating here or anywhere else I fear
         C                 F            G              F
 And the girl that's on my arm is gonna have to see tears
       G       (stop)
 More tears


           C                                 F
 Because I see your face and it's still my own
           C                                   G
 How can I ever think it's something that's gone?
               C                                    F
 It's just the fact that we're a match that makes sense
             C                                     G
 Although insane if you still claim we'll be friends


        Am                              F
 And I know you think I'm crazy and the world makes it two
            Am                            F
 But I'm not crazy it's just dumb to be alive without you
            C                   F                  G            F
 I know you love his looks, you love his love, you love his family
             C            F            G              F
 But is that really any reason to love him instead of me
         G
 I can't see


               C         F
 Oh how can it be?
             C                         G
 And does it really add up mathematicaly?
             C                       F
 Or should I say it more emphatically?
      C                     G
 Consistently or sporadically?
            C               F             C    G  C
 Oh is this really just the way it will be?
