Why

Bm                 D                           G
Half a bottle down, a mile out of town and it hits me
Bm                         D                      G
Everything I'd come to love was comin' back to get me
Bm                          D                           G
Blue light in the rearview left me with a clear view unloaded
Bm                      D                           G
Got a lot of love, but I don't really know how to show it


[Pre-Chorus]
    Bm            A              D
And I grew on my own, I told you so
              G
I did not need someone to hold
Bm         A                  D
 Back my heart the way you've done
             G
And you were doin'


[Chorus]
    D                     A               G
But why can't I be someone else tonight?
          D           A               G
I'd give anything to make this right
     Bm         A                    D
And you don't know what you've been missin', babe
              G
So won't you turn off the lights and come back inside
                            A
And then you'd find you'd rather not


[Verse 2]
 Bm                         D                   G
Back into thе black, I was ready for somebody differеnt
 Bm                       D            G
Rememberin' these days as much as I'm forgettin'
 Bm                                D                   G
If you're losin' tracks, steppin' back and you know it
 Bm                                 D                      G
Count up all your friends, is there anybody left to ignore this?


[Chorus]
    D                     A               G
But why can't I be someone else tonight?
              D            A              G
And I'd give anything to make this right
     Bm         A                    D
And you don't know what you've been missin', babe
              G
So won't you turn off the lights and come back inside
                            A
And then you'd find you'd rather not


[Bridge]
    D              A               G
And I will hold my breath until I cannot anymore
              D         A          G
And why do I pray to a God that I know I can't afford?
     Bm             D              G
Am I wrong to be confused if I am still in love with you?
     Bm             D           G
Am I wrong to feel anything at all?


[Chorus]
    D                                    A
But why can't I be someone else tonight?
              Bm                        G
Oh, I'd give anything to make this right
              Bm           D             G
Oh, I'd give anything to make this right
           Bm          D             G
I'd give anything to make this right
