Merle Haggard - Because You Cant Be Mine Chords

C                                          F
What makes something you can't have always look so good

    C                                   G7
Why does something out of reach seem so fine

     C                                 F
What makes you thrill me more than any girl I know

  C               G7                   C
I guess it's just because you can't be mine

 
    G7                        C      F        C
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me

                                     G7
And be satisfied with what's already mine

     C                            F
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

  C               G7                   C
I guess it's just because you can't be mine

 
                                  F
What makes me always want a woman I can't have

    C                                 G7
Why does someone else's silver always shine

   C                                 F
My passion rises every time you come around

      C               G7                   C
And I guess it's just because you can't be mine

 
    G7                        C      F        C
Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me

                                     G7
And be satisfied with what's already mine

     C                            F
What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing

  C               G7                   C
I guess it's just because you can't be mine
