LYRICS:
[D] [A] [D] [F#]
[F#]I believe[F#7] we're [F#]crossing a great ravine[F#7]
still [F#]yearning, half-way a [E]stranger
[F#]I believe[F#7] in [F#]our multiplicity[F#7]
still [F#]part-blind, no reason for [E]anger
[A]so why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [F#]tell [E]me the [B]truth [F#]about you[F#m]
[D] [A] [D] [F#]
[F#]tyranny[F#7] [F#]crushing the young bird's seed[F#7]
[F#]hallowe'en's mate short fuse of the [E]banker
I can see [F#]vaseline,[F#7] you [F#]smeared it across every scene[F#7]
the [F#]anchorman drowns in a sea of sen[E]sation
[F#]I thought myself wise through all of these hopeless times
but I told myself, told myself, you've got to hold [E]on
[A]so why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [F#]tell [E]me the [B]truth [F#]about you[F#m]
[A]why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [D]tell [G]me
[A]why don't you [F#]tell [E]me the [B]truth [F#]about you[F#m]
[D] [A]about you, [D] [A]about you
(D A until end)
