Ryan Bingham - Every wonder why 
Chords used - E, B, A
Really great song, by an amazing performer
during the last bit of song he hangs less on the E
If you listen to the song you'll hear the timing.
Intro: E  B  A  E -x4   last time hang on the E
BIf you ever see me walking down the side of the road
woAuld you ever stop and wonder wEhy
BWould you think it's lost that I paid the cost
AStop and give a poor boy a Eride
AAnd forget my paEst
Bif I ever get home, I'm never gonna worry 
'About the things that I could've dEone
B'Cause I've done a lot of things I could've done better
ABut now it don't matter nEone
A'Cause I've raised my glaEss
  E    B    A    E-x2
B'cause I fell in love and then I lost touch
AI dropped dead and broke her heEart
BI drove off a cliff, And I barely missed
AWalkin' with her in the paErk
Ajust a selfish bEoy
BBut I have not forgot that the food in the pot
Aain't cookin' for a boy like Eme
BI been fightin' all night with the dogs in the alley 
Alooking for a bone to Eeat
(Been) sAtarving to deatEh
E
BEverybody's troubled with the hustle and the bustle
AThe payment on the house is Elate
BIf I ever have a problem like it
AI guess I'll be in pretty good sEhape
AYou can kiss my ass goodEbye
B'Cause when I feel the wind blow, See the ghost in the road
AAnd headlights are a beautiful siEght
BAnd out in the desert, I can sit under them heavens (sit on up in heaven?)
AAnd watch the sun keep on settin' for miEles
AAnd here comes another soEng
BThen I take a pen and a little piece of paper
AI scribble on down the linEes
BAnd what you're hearing now, Is something I found
AHidin' way down insEide
A(in) the cellar of my hEeart
BAnd I hope everybody had a real good time
Ahope I didn't bring you dowEn
BThese ain't sad songs, don't take 'em wrong
AI haven't been home in a whiEle
AWell, I'll see you all aroEund

Ryan Bingham - Every wonder why

Chords used - E, B, A

Really great song, by an amazing performer

during the last bit of song he hangs less on the E

If you listen to the song you'll hear the timing.

Intro: E B A E -x4 last time hang on the E

If you ever see me walking down the side of the road

A E

would you ever stop and wonder why

Would you think it's lost that I paid the cost

A E

Stop and give a poor boy a ride

A E

And forget my past

if I ever get home, I'm never gonna worry

A E

'bout the things that I could've done

'Cause I've done a lot of things I could've done better

A E

But now it don't matter none

A E

'Cause I've raised my glass

E B A E

-x2

'cause I fell in love and then I lost touch

A E

I dropped dead and broke her heart

I drove off a cliff, And I barely missed

A E

Walkin' with her in the park

A E

just a selfish boy

But I have not forgot that the food in the pot

A E

ain't cookin' for a boy like me

I been fightin' all night with the dogs in the alley

A E

looking for a bone to eat

A E

(Been) starving to death

Everybody's troubled with the hustle and the bustle

A E

The payment on the house is late

If I ever have a problem like it

A E

I guess I'll be in pretty good shape

A E

You can kiss my ass goodbye

'Cause when I feel the wind blow, See the ghost in the road

A E

And headlights are a beautiful sight

And out in the desert, I can sit under them heavens (sit on up in heaven?)

A E

And watch the sun keep on settin' for miles

A E

And here comes another song

Then I take a pen and a little piece of paper

A E

I scribble on down the lines

And what you're hearing now, Is something I found

A E

Hidin' way down inside

A E

(in) the cellar of my heart

And I hope everybody had a real good time

A E

hope I didn't bring you down

These ain't sad songs, don't take 'em wrong

A E

I haven't been home in a while

A E

Well, I'll see you all around

B A E
