Hello there,
I really wanted to find chords for this song, but most Ron Sexsmith songs have the decency
of being easy to play, so I thought I'd do it myself. This one is particularly charming,
off the Blue Boy record, which is a favourite from this Canadian artist.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
[Intro]
C F C F
[Verse 1]
G                      F
Don't feel the need to get to the bottom of
G                      F
The love light in your eyes
G                  F
As the leaves fall prey to autumn
  C
I don't ask why
G                          F
Don't give my feelings the third degree
G                F
No need to think twice
G                   F
As long as I've got you for me
  C             F
I don't ask why
  C             F
I don't ask why
[Bridge]
Am
What good would it do me knowing
       F            G
How it all works anyway?
Am
My hearts got it's own game going
    F             G
I'm just happy to play
[Chorus]
Em                          Dm
It's said in wisdom there's so much grief
C
Why try?
Em                  Dm         F
If the answer brings no relief
                        G
It's better to laugh or cry
F G F
[Verse 2]
G                    F
Since worrying don't change a thing
  C             F
I don't ask why
[Bridge 2]
Am
What good would it do me knowing
       F              G
How it all works from behind?
Am
My souls got it's own dream going
    F              G
I'm just following blind
[Chorus]
Em                          Dm
It's said in wisdom there's so much grief
C
Like a child
Em                  Dm         F
If the answer brings no relief
                        G
It's better to laugh or cry
F G F
[Verse 3]
G                   F
So if we chased the stars and caught 'em
G                    F
Now would they still shine?
G                      F
Don't feel the need to get to the bottom of
C F
               C            F
The love light in your eyes
      C           F
No, I don't ask why
G F G F G
