WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Santana - Why Don't You And I Tabs | Ver. 1
PROPS GO TO: Adman!
This is a sweet song off Santana's album "Shaman", with Nickelback's Chad Kroeger. I think it is played with a 22-fret guitar tuned one half step down. My guitars only have 20 frets so I didn't tab some of the higher parts (eg the modified intro bit). Improvise. Anyways, it rules. I didn't bother tabbing the solo because I'd rather play my own than figure out Carlos's :P

Verse:
Bb5 F5
Since the moment I spotted you
Ab Eb
Like walking round with little wings on my shoes
Bb5 F5 Ab
My stomach’s filled with the butterflies
Eb
Mmm and it’s alright
Bb5 F5
Bouncing around from cloud to cloud
Ab Eb
I got the feeling like I’m never gonna come down
Bb5 F5 Ab
If I said I didn’t like it then you’d know I’d lied
Eb
Mm
Pre-Chorus:
C5
Every time I try to talk to you
Eb5
I get tongue tied
C5
Turns out that every thing I say to you
Eb5
Comes out wrong and never comes out right so I say
Chorus:
Bb5 F5
Why don’t you and I get together
Eb
Take on the world be together forever
Bb5 F5 Eb
As we will tales will try again (?)
Bb5 F5
So I say why don’t you and I hold each other
Eb
Fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Bb5 F5 Eb
‘Cause without you they’re never gonna let me in
Intro (modified)
Verse:
Wings been screaming, gonna break
I think I’ve handled more than any man can take
I’m like a lovesick puppy chasing you around
Oo and it’s alright
Bouncing around from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I’m never gonna come down
If I said I didn’t like it then you’d know I’d lied
Mm
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
C Eb5
Slowly I begin to realize this is never gonna end
C Eb5
But about the same time, you walk by and I say “Oh here we go again” oh
