WHY ME -   Hot Grubb 

           
G                                                 C
I met her in a night club over on the lower east side
        D                                                     G
I was workin' with my head down tryin' to keep the groove a-live
G                                            C
She looked like a bunny out of Playboy maga-zine
        D                                                  G
I just had to meet her; she was the cutest thing I'd ever seen
 G                                                 C
She had high heel boots, blonde hair and big blue eyes
     D                                            G
The way she was movin' to the music had me hypno-tized
G                                          C
I ran up to her, said "Baby, what's your name?"
    D                                               G
I should've known better  I've only got myself to blame

         G                C
I said why-y-y, why, why me?
  D                                         G
Fallin' like this is the very last thing I need
G                                                         C
If I had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and leave
        D                  G
I said why, why, why, why me?

Lead
G                                                   C
Started drinkin' champagne, makin' every joint in town
  D                                          G
Bam! A hundred dollars every time I turned around
G                                                      C
By the time my money ran out, you know, my honey was gone
D                                                     G
And I was cryin' out loud to myself as I was walkin' home


        G                C
I said why-y-y, why, why me?
  D                                         G
Fallin' like this is the very last thing I need
G                                                         C
If I had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and leave
        D                  G       (single notes B  C  C#)
I said why, why, why, why me?
G                   C    
Why, why, why, why me?
        D                 G
I said why, why, why, why me?
