[Verse]
                                   G(D)            C  
Most days, I wake when the sunshine crawls into my bed
GFit as a fiddle when the Cworld wakes up
GTaking a drink from a Cgolden cup
GMost days, I'm looking on the bright side of an open Cdoor
GSwing your partner and Cdo-si-do
GMy feet keep telling me to Cgo, go, go
[Chorus]
DCross my heart, but I don't ask Amwhy
GSome nights I can't help but Ccry
GYoung life, it's fragile as a daisy in an open Cfield
GWith a bit of good luck you're a Cflower crown
Or Gelse the rain'll come to Cknock you down
GBad news, it hit me like a freight train goin' so Cfast
GStandin' in the rain where the Cdaisies grow
GPrayin' to a god that I Cdon't know
[Chorus]
DCross my heart, but I don't ask Amwhy
GSome nights I can't help but Ccry
DWhen the trumpet sounds from the other AmsiiiiEmide
Put the Cshovel in the B7ground
Don't ask Emwhy
[Instrumental]
 Am- B7  
[Verse]
EmDon't ask why
AmWhether it's your heart that's broken B7or your brother's mind
EmLittle sister running home with a Dblackened eye
I don't Cask why, I don't ask why
[Chorus]
DCross my heart and I hope to Amdie
GSome nights I can't help but Ccry
When the Dtrumpet sounds from the other AmsiiiiEmiiide
Put the Cshovel in the B7ground
Don't ask Emwhy
[Instrumental]
 Am-  B7- Em
