🎶 Why Can't You

Tone [Eb]
===
Verse 1:
[Abmaj7]Here I am again, love
I hope you don't [Gm7]mind, hope you don't [Fm7]mind
'Cause I don't wanna be alone, for the rest of my [Ebmaj7]life
[Abmaj7]Tried to hide my sins, now
But where could they [Gm7]lie?
You're in [Fm7]control, and I can't let go
I'm here, 'til we [Ebmaj7]die (Ooh, ooh)

Pre-chorus:
Mental solitude
I remember [Abmaj7]it was subtle
You would tell me [Gm7]in the summer
You could never [Gm7]love another (Ooh)
It's no [Fm7]longer true
Now I'm waiting [Fm7]for a phone call, where are you, [Gm7]pride?
Are you alive? Is this a [G7]sign?

Chorus
To get over [Abmaj7]you-ooh-ooh
I love [Gm7]you-ooh-ooh
Why can't [Fm7]you (Why can't you), be in [Ebmaj7]love? (Be in love?)
Oh, why can't [Abmaj7]you-ooh-ooh?
What do I [Gm7]do? (I love you-ooh-ooh)
[Gm7]Why [F#m7]can't [Fm7]you, be in [Ebmaj7]love?

Verse 2
[Abmaj7]Here I am again, love
I hope you don't [Gm7]mind, hope you don't [Fm7]mind
'Cause I don't wanna be alone, for the rest of my [Ebmaj7]life, yeah
[Abmaj7]And if you were to change your ways for me, I would [Gm7]cry
'Cause then I would [Fm7]know if we'd still have hope
And maybe we could [Ebmaj7]survive (Ooh, ooh)

Pre-Chorus
Mental [Abmaj7]solitude
I remember [Abmaj7]it was subtle
You would tell me [Gm7]in the summer
You could never [Gm7]love another (Ooh)
It's no [Fm7]longer true
Now I'm waiting [Fm7]for a phone call, where are you, [Gm7]pride?
Are you alive? Is this a [G7]sign?

Chorus
To get over [Abmaj7]you-ooh-ooh
I love [Gm7]you-ooh-ooh
Why can't [Fm7]you (Why can't you), be in [Ebmaj7]love? (Be in love?)
Oh, why can't [Abmaj7]you-ooh-ooh?
What do I [Gm7]do? (I love you-ooh-ooh)
[Gm7]Why [F#m7]can't [Fm7]you, be in [Ebmaj7]love?

Outro
[Abmaj7]Oh, I’m so in [Gm7]love with you
[Gm7][F#m7][Fm7]So can we, be in [Ebmaj7]love?
