Why Would I Say Goodbye
Written by Kix Brooks and Chris Waters
Recorded by Brooks and Dunn
Transcribed by Keith Reding


E                        B
I guess I lost my head last night
E                    A
Kept on 'til I made you cry
E                            C#m
Walked out with my stubborn pride
B                                            A
Wasn't nothing you could do to stop me
E                         B
I hit the road but I didn't get far
E                             A
Just drove around all night in my car
E                        C#m
Now I'm not sure where to start
B                          A
To tell you that I'm sorry

Chorus

A       B        E  F#m   A
I just want to hold you
A                    B
I don't want to hurt you
B                    E  F#m
I don't want to leave
F#m             A          B
I just want to be with you
B                    C#m     B            
And after living alone, lost for so long
A
finally found the love of my life
F#m             A             E
Why  would I say goodbye

Verse 2

I don't know what is is about the edge of a cliff

Makes we want to get so close to it

I guess tis time I finally slipped

What a foolish way to end it

Maybe that's why I'm back here now

got bot feet back on the ground

Hopin' you won't turn me down

when I ask you for forgiveness

Repeat chorus
