Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 It's 3 AM and I finally say

 I'm sorry for acting that way

 I didn't really mean to make you cry

 Oh baby, sometimes I wonder why

(CHORUS 1)

  Does it always have to come down

 To you leaving

 Before I'll say 'I love you'

 Why do I always use the words

 That cut the deepest

 When I know how much it hurts you

 Oh baby why, do I do that to you

(VERSE 2)

 I know I'd never let you walk away

 So why do I push you 'til you break

 And why are you always on the verge of good-bye

 Before I'll show you how I really feel inside

(CHORUS)

  Does it always have to come down

 To you leaving

 Before I'll say 'I love you'

 Why do I always use the words

 That cut the deepest

 When I know how much it hurts you

 Oh baby why, do I do that to you

(ENDING)

 Why do I always use the words that cut the deepest

 When I know how much it hurts you

 Oh baby why, do I do that to you

 Why do I do that to you
