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?
