I may be viciously unkind 
                                     Em 
But I still can read what you are thinking

Tell me why 

You tell me 
           C9 
This is a book I never read 
            D9 
The words I never said 
           Em 
The path Iā??ll never tread 
           C9 
The dreams Iā??ll dream instead 
             D9 
The drink I step and spil led 
             Em 
Tears that we shed 
           C9 
The fear, Madrid 
           D9              ... 
The conscious inside my head 
          Em .. 
These are the years we spent 

This is what they represent 

This is how I feel 

Do you even know I feel? 

Cause if you know 

I donā??t think you know 

How can you know? 

You never ask me 
C9 D9 Em 
Why 

Why
