Cody Simpson
[Intro]
C                  Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                C
You ain't living but you do not die
C                Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                 C
You ain't laughing but you do not cry
C
Cry for the young man
Dsus4
Who's fighting for your mind
F
Cry for the old man
C
Who's just passed its time
C                   Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                               C
You ain't living but you do not die

Oh, tell me why...


[Verse]
C                                   Dsus4
Tell me why the leaves, will they fall with your breath
F                                   C
And if the leaves don't fall, they leave your breath to rest
C                    Dsus4
Your rebellion puts he up to the test
F
To the nation for evaluation
C                           Dsus4
While she wild with their radio station
F                           C
Now I'm done playing their game, oh, yeah
C                                        Dsus4               F                            C
Just searching for shade and you could tie that your tired mind that you break up to the side


[Chorus]
C                  Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                C
You ain't living but you do not die
C                Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                 C
You ain't laughing but you do not cry

Cry for the young man

Who's fighting for your mind
F
Cry for the old man
C
Who's just passed its time
C                   Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                               C
You ain't living but you do not die

Oh, tell me why...


[Verse 2]
C                           Dsus4        F
Die with the mass man, the gas man, the tax man
C                                  Dsus4
He springs taxes on tax men while reaching out with their own hands
F
Singing to the systematic
C
Static television addict
C
Sitting on your attic
Dsus4                         F           C
Can't seem to see all the plastic in the water bay
               Dsus4                 F
You wouldn't want that for your daughter babe
C
Technological advances make no logical advances
Dsus4                              F
Forget what you learned that you know that I love for you to


[Chorus]
C                  Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why
F                                C
You ain't living but you do not die
C                Dsus4
Tell me why, tell me why

You ain't laughing but you do not cry

Cry for the young man

Who's fighting for your mind
F
Cry for the old man
C
Who's just passed its time
C                   Dsus4
