F#m                       A
If only you'd had known me
before the accident
F#m                           A
For with that grand collision,
came a grave consequence
F#m                 A
Receptors overloaded,
they burst and disconnect
F#m                           A
'Til there was little feeling,
please work with what is left

Oh, I need not be flattered
that you've never been here before
So there’s no need to mention
that you've no firsts anymore
But if you let me be your skyline,
I’ll let you be the wave
That reduces me to rubble,
but looked safe from far away

Chorus:
D
I don't know why I don't know why
F#m
I return to the scenes of these crimes
D
Where the hedgerows slowly wind
F#m
Through the ghosts of Beverly Drive
D
I don't know why I don't know why
F#m
I don't know what I expect to find
D
Where all the news is second hand
Bm
And everything just goes on as planned

F#m                      A
You wanna teach but not be taught
And I wanna sell but not be bought
So let us not be lonesome
So let us not be lonesome
Lost in between our needs and wants
Our needs and wants

Chorus

 D                               F#m
I don't know why I don't know why
 D                               F#m
I don't know why I don't know why
 D                               F#m
I don't know why I don't know why
 D                               Bm
I don't know why I don't know why
