Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Everywhere I look the sun is shining
But it’s always raining here inside
I can see you really had a hold on me
It’s a mean old love with a flame that never dies

Won’t you tell me why
I can’t say goodbye

Everywhere I go you’re in my shadow
When I turn around there’s no one there
And it’s a real bad sign
I’m walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared

So won’t you tell me why
I can’t say goodbye
Won’t you tell me why

Ask anyone you know
And they’ll say love fades away
But this heart’s crying just like yesterday

And it’s a real bad sign
I’m walking on a real thin line
A fool in love with a fool that never cared

So won’t you tell me why
I can’t say goodbye
Won’t you tell me why
I can’t say goodbye

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)

Echoes thunder almost every night
Why this prison if we’re all alike?
Look around you, look at all your friends
Tell me, are they just what they pretend?

Listen to my story if you have the time
Yes, we’ll make the difference if we really try
Listen, everybody, and start to make it right
One and all together, feel it from inside

CHORUS:
Tell me why it echoes every night,
Why we fight just to find who’s wrong or right
Don’t let it slide, you can’t run and hide
Tell me why, oh, won’t you please tell me why?

(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)

Give me a reason for all this senseless crime
We can change it, why they have to die
Think of the children, tomorrow’s their future
Don’t make them feel it’s just another day

Tell me, anybody, why can’t we live together,
End all the fighting, erase it all forever?
Listen for this reason before it gets too late
Soon, there will be no one, no one left to hate

CHORUS

Oh oh oh oh, tell me, tell me why
Oh oh oh oh, tell me, tell me why
Oh oh oh oh, tell me, tell me why
Oh oh oh oh, tell me, tell me why

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE

So, tell me, anybody, why can’t we live together,
End all the fighting, erase it all forever?
Listen for this reason before it gets too late
Soon, there will be no one, no one left to hate

CHORUS (2x)

Games are not where it’s at
Give it up, no time for that
Imagine people, hand in hand
No more fighting in this land
Red, yellow, black, or white
Colors don’t make up what’s right
Come with me and see the light
We can start the peace tonight
Make the music fill your life
Now’s the time to realize
Don’t be living in a lie
Can’t you hear the people’s cry?

Can’t you hear the people’s cry?

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Mothers crying in the street
Children dying at their feet, tell me why, ooh tell me why
People starving everywhere
There’s too much food but there’s none to spare,
Tell me why, oh tell me why

Can you see that shaft of sunlight
Can you see it in my eyes
I can feel the fire that’s burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart but before my eyes
For some it’s too late
Cos it seems there’s no-one listening

People sleeping in the streets
No roof above, no food to eat, tell me why, oh tell me why
See the questions in their eyes
Listen to their children’s cries,
Tell me why, please tell me why

If there’s a god, is he watching
Can he give a ray of hope
So much pain and so much sorrow
Tell me what does he see
When he looks at you
When he looks at me
What would he say
Cos it seems there’s no-one listening

Who would think it still could happen
Even in this time and place
Politicians, they may save themselves
Ah but they won’t save their face
So hope against hope it’s not too late

You say there’s nothing you can do
Is there one rule for them and one for you,
Tell me why, just tell my why

Listen can you see that shaft of sunlight
Can you see it in my eyes
I can feel the fire that’s burning
Anger and hope so deep
So deep within my heart but before my eyes
For some it’s too late
And it seems there’s no-one listening

Hurry for me, hurry for me
Hurry for me, hurry for me, they cry, they cry…

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Although I’ll never deserve it
I realize that You will give me all of Your love
I couldn’t ever return it
I know that I could never give you reason enough

Your love came over me
You found the way to my heart

Tell me why
What have I done
I got You
Now You’ll always be the one
Tell me how
Can this be true
I’m with you
Now I really wanna know
Tell me why

Let everybody believe it, I want the world to see the love that we’ve got
Deep down in me I can feel it
I’m gonna give You all I have and no matter what

Your love came over me
You found the way to my heart

I’m gonna wait no longer
To show how I really feel
My love is growing stronger
You’re all that I need
You are my love for life
Nothing can tear us apart

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

C’mon tell me what you thinkin’
I can see that look in your eyes
Baby give me all your reasons
Just why you feel we need to say good-bye
You’re tired of the endless aggravation
I tried to give you everything i could
You’re makin’ love to someone who, girl is just a fool for you
He doesn’t treat you like this lover could
I’d swim across the ocean just to hear you call my name
You lost that lovin’ feelin, and you say i’m to blame

Tell me why girl you’re saying that we’re through
I need a lot of lovin’ and i want it all from you
Tell me why girl you don’t feel the same
Lost that lovin’ feelin’, and you say i’m to blame
Tell me why

You were lookin’ for a little conversation
Baby i heard every word you said
Lovin’ me would always be forever
What’s goin’ on inside your pretty head
Girl you’ve got me wrapped around your finger
You know there’s nothin’ that i wouldn’t do
Take a chance on our romance i want to be the man
Spends each night makin’ love to you
I’d dig a hole to china, to get one kiss from you
You say i’m the reason for your passive attitude

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Sailing heart-ships thru broken harbors
Out on the waves in the night
Still the searcher must ride the dark horse
Racing alone in his fright.
Tell me why, tell me why

Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself,
When your old enough to repay but young enough to sell?

Tell me lies later, come and see me
I’ll be around for a while.
I am lonely but you can free me
All in the way that you smile
Tell me why, tell me why

Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself,
When your old enough to repay but young enough to sell?

Tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why, tell me why

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

[chorus]:
Tell me, tell me, tell me why
Why you tell me lies, even after all i do for you?
And tell me, tell me tell me why i try
Try to be your guy, even all you put me through?

Enough’s enough my dear
No longer can i take this pain inside
You know the truth is that you look me for a ride
I guess i never did enough to keep you satisfied

It’s a cruel deception
You told me that you loved me when it wasnt’ even true
Inspite of all the love i give to you
Nothing int he world i wouldn’t do
To keep you hapy, to make you happy
Oh, tell me why

Chorus

The sun shines bright again
And all the tears i’ve cried for you have been washed awwway
Because all the things i did for you just seemed in vain
Tell me what game you play, oh baby

I’ve been so true to you
Gave you all the things in a man could ever give to you
And when you were down my love was there to see you through
Baby, what am i to do?
Someone tell me why

Chorus

Oh girl
I tried giving you the best of me
I was so blind but baby now i see
You tell me all the time, that everything is fine
When you know that’s a lie, lie, lie

Chorus

Tell me why the stars do shine
Tell me why the ivy twines
Tell me why the sky’s so blue
And then i’ll tell you just why i love you
Because god made the stars to shine

Because god made the sky’s so blue
Because god made you, that’s why i love you

Tell me why the ivy twines
Because god made the sky’s so blue
Because god made you, that’s why i love you

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Even now I can see that day
The fear in your eyes
Tell me why
Were you so afraid

Somethings they turn out this way
Fire the bullet and find
That you don’t know what you left behind
When we laid you to rest

Tell me why were you so afraid
Tell me why were you so afraid

You walk this line
You walk this line of hate
Where to people are so blind
Blind to the evil it creates
Never say too much
Never think out loud

Tell me why were you so afraid
Tell me why were you so afraid

I know one day you’ll find a way
To heal the wounds
I know one day you’ll find a way
To heal the wounds

Tell me why were you so afraid

Even now I can see that day
The fear in your eyes
You gave all you lived for
Whilst you kept your pride

Tell me why were you so afraid
Tell me why were you so afraid

Tell me why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

hey Mr. God can you tell me what’s
wrong with my life and all of its confusions
why did she leave me with nothing to show
except for a shallow disillusion
‘cause I can’t seem to figure out
why you feel this way
and I guess I’m to blame
if I told you that I didn’t care about this place
would you think of me the same
could you please tell me why
could you please tell me why
could you please tell me why
why I can’t ever find the answer to something
I will never understand
could you please tell me why
I sit back thinking that there once was a time
a time where everything was perfect
it seems the things we shared were so far behind
behind but we’re never getting closer
‘cause I can feel your shadow hanging over me
and I’m just peering through the light
now I realized you never really cared for me
will I ever see
could you please tell me why
why I can’t hold on to the person
that I tried so hard to find
could you please tell me why

Everywhere I go you’re in my shadow

But this hearts’ cryin’ just like yesterday

Every time i look at someone new
Tell me why i think of you
Then you sometimes ask me by
You’re playing with love
Darling tell me why

You left me all alone
To cry over you
My heart is torn and broken
There’s nothing left to do

In my prayers, i’ll mention you
When you’re gone i feel so blue
Why can’t i have all of you
Oh, somebody, please tell me why

Tell Me Why (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Ooh
We could have had it all
But you turned your back

We started with dreams, we started a team
But you weren’t as true as you always seemed
You promised to love no matter what
Yet you turned your back and walked out on me

What made you think that without me,
Your life would be so much better, but now, you see
That without me, your hopes and dreams
Will never be as good as what you had with me

CHORUS:
Tell me why, oh, why
Did we end up this way
When we tried, we tried
To make everything okay?
Tell me why, oh, why
Did you feel you couldn’t stay
When we could have stayed together?
But you wanted it this way

You never thought that I would find out
All of the things you said about us
When you’re the one who decided to
Erase all our plans and say you were through

What made you think that without me,
Your life would be so much better, but now, you see
That without me, your hopes and dreams
Will never be as good as what you had with me

CHORUS (2x)

Now, tell me, was it
Your plan all along
To try and use me and then let go?
Now, where is the trust
We had between us?
I guess that you never played by the rules

BREAK

Can you tell me?

CHORUS (3x)

Now I’ve got my reasons for feeling this way
day after day and as nights go by

So, if you think my heart is broken and I might die
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

All of the world is as lonely as me
day after day and as nights go by

So if you think my heart is broken and I might die
Tell me why, tell me why , tell me why

Well i gave you everything i had

Tell me why you cried baby
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

If it’s somethin’ that i might have said
Just tell me girl, and i’ll apologize
If you don’t i really can’t go on
Holdin’ back the tears, holdin’ back the tears from my eyes

Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby

Tell me why,
I don’t believe in you.
I don’t believe it’s true.
I don’t believe in you.

Happens nearly every time,
If you let them, they’ll control your mind,
Yes your mind.

But that was only yesterday,
So you had to wash your head in hate.
In hate, in hate.

Tell me why,
I don’t believe in you.
I don’t believe it’s true.
I don’t believe in you.

Shall we stand against the wind?
Staring at the justice of their sins,
Their sins.

What have they done to live this way?
In a modern world, the fragile pay
They pay, oh yes they pay.

Tell me why,
I don’t believe in you.
I don’t believe it’s true.
I don’t believe in you.

Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You don’t know the pain that i feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why

It hurts inside, for real, a lie
Can you tell me what went wrong with our love
We laughed, we cried
Through battles, we survived
Our love was sure as the stars above
Oh, tell me why

Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You don’t know the pain that i feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why

You said we’d be together forever
They say true love never dies
You said that i was all you needed
Why did we have to say goodbye
The situation is killing me
But you had to step out on me
With another man, i don’t understand
I saw you holding his hand

Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You don’t know the pain that i feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why

I remember the first time that i laid eyes on you
You were the only one for me, i thought i knew
Now my heart is filled with pain
Cuz our love was in vain
Tell me why, oh why, please tell me why

Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You don’t know the pain that i feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why

2 – i need to know, please tell me
Why did you have to leave me
I need your love, please tell me
Baby tell me

Repeat 2 while:
I need to know right now
Won’t you tell me
Can i testify right now

Girl i used to do the things you wanted me to do
I cooked your breakfast, i rubbed your back
But you had to step out on me

And with another man
Why did you do this to me
Please tell me, please tell me

I deserve better than this
Won’t you tell me
What did i do wrong
Oh, tell me why why why
I get lonely without you baby
