DON'T ASK ME WHY from Glass Houses
INTRO: riff x6
All the waiters in your grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink, oh
Every dog must have his every day
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
-5
Just take your chances
/ riff x4
Don't ask me why
All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet, oh
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calender's complete
Don't wait for answers
-5
Just take your chances
/ riff x4
Don't ask me why
Mmmm, You can say the human heart
Is only make believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
Of the accidents you leave
As sure as I'm a victim of desi..yi..yire
All the servents in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet, oh
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favours
-5
Don't talk to strangers
/ riff x4
Don't ask me why
SOLO:
Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away, oh
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you parlez vous francais
Don't look for answers
-5
You took your chances
/ riff x8
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why
