I Can't Tell You Why by The Eagles

[intro:]  |Bm7   |A   |   
          |Bm7   |A   | 
          |Bm7   |A   | 
          |Bm7   |F#m7  | 

[verse: 1] 
|Dmaj7            |           |
 Look at us baby, up all night 
|Gmaj7            |           | 
 Tearing our love apart 
|Dmaj7                 |
 Aren’t we the same two people who lived 
        |Gmaj7            |     
Through years in the dark
|F#sus4 F#7  |
 Ahh____ah 
 
[chorus: 1]
|Bm7                 |A        |
 Every time I try to walk away 
|Gmaj7                  |F#sus4    F#7  | 
 Something makes me turn around and stay 
|Bm7              |A   {let ring}|Gmaj7   |F#m7   |
 I can't tell you why 
 
{verse: 2] 
|Dmaj7             |Dmaj7               |
 When we get crazy, it just ain't right
                    (try to keep you head, little girl)
|Gmaj7             |             |
 Girl, I get lonely, too 
|Dmaj7                  |Dmaj7              |Gmaj7         
 You don't have to worry Just hold on tight
                             (don't get caught in your little world)
        |F#sus4 F#7  |
Cause I love you 

[chorus: 2]
|Bm7                       |A        |
 Nothing's wrong as far as I can see 
|Gmaj7                    |F#sus4    F#7  |  
 We make it harder than it has to be
