John Butler Trio
Tell Me Why
[Verse]
I got to let it go
I got to give it up
Gonna take a ride in my pickup truck (yeah)
Because it’s one in five
Maybe one in ten
That you and I are gonna get back together again

[Verse]
I’m gonna roll one up
I’m gonna burn one down
Gonna take a left
Into the shady part of town
And Jamie on the corner
Gonna hook me up
Ain’t nothing I can do
But go and get messed up because..

[Chorus]
Tell me why
You and I keep wasting our time
Ain’t no use trying to read your goddamn mind
And I can’t work it If you can’t work it out
Tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about
[Verse]
And now I’m broken down I got to take it slow
Gonna catch a Greyhound into Chicago
And the windy little city gonna blow it away
All my disillusion and all my pain
All my disillusion and all my pain because..

[Chorus]
Tell me why
You and I keep wasting our time
Ain’t no use trying to read your goddamn mind
And I can’t work it If you can’t work it out
Tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about

[Bridge]
Wandering alone
Trying to find my feet again
Trying to find out who I am
So tangled up in you
I can’t separate the two
Where do I end and you begin…
Where do I end and you begin…

Where do I end and you begin…
Where do I end and you begin…
Where do I end and you begin…
[Outro]
Tell me why
You and I keep wasting our time
Ain’t no use trying to read your goddamn mind
And I can’t work it If you can’t work it out
Tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about
Darling, tell me what it’s all about…
