Billy Joel - Don't Ask Me Why: chords

A#                       C7
All the waiters in your grand cafe
F7                           A#      D#
Leave their tables when you blink, Oh
A#                      C7
Every dog must have his everyday
F7                         A#
Every drunk must have his drink
D7             Gm
Don't wait for answers
A#7             C7
Just take your chances
F7           A#/D
Don't ask me why

All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
Ohh, all your choices made you change your mind
Now your calendar's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

F                              D#
You can say the human heart is only make believe
    F                            A#
And I am only fighting fire with fire
    G7                            C7
But you are still a victim of the accidents
you leave
    G7                        C7 F7
As sure as I'm a victim of desire

All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why

Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, "Parlez-vous français ?"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask me why

Don't ask me why
