Intro
D

Verse 1
G
You must have been in a place so dark
G
You couldn’t feel the light
Cadd9
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud
G
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
G
This can’t be the way you meant to draw a crowd

Chorus 1
    C
Oh, why? That’s what I keep asking
          D
Was there anything I could have said or done?
    G
Oh, I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
    D
God only knows   what went wrong
    G
and why      you’d leave the stage in the middle of a song

Interlude
D

Verse 2
    G
Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a 17-year old
Cadd9
Rounding third to score the winning run
G
You always played with passion no matter what the game
         G
When you took the stage you shined just like the sun

Chorus 2
    C
Oh, why? That’s what I keep asking
          D
Was there anything I could have said or done?
    G
Oh, I had no clue you were masking a troubled soul
    D
God only knows   what went wrong
    Em
and why     you’d leave the stage in the middle of a song

Interlude
G/B

C(hold)

Verse 3
        G
Now the oak trees a-swaying in the early autumn breeze
    Cadd9
The golden sun is shining on my face
G
Tangled thoughts I hear the mocking bird sing
G
This old world really ain’t that bad a place

Chorus 3
    C
Oh, why? There’s no comprehending
    D
And who am I to try to judge or ex - plain
    C
But I do have one burning question
    D
Who told you life wasn’t worth the fight
          D
They were wrong
     C
They lied
           C
Now you’re gone   and we cry
C
It’s just not like you to walk away in the middle of a song

                 D
Your beaut - i - ful song

     G
Your absolutely      beaut – i - ful song


This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. Since
U-G doesn't always include the correct chord voicings, I have
included all of them in this transcription. Please feel free to
experiment with your own chord voicings.

In order to play the D/G, you may need to use your thumb to fret
