A   E   A   E

[Verse 1]
       A
If you leave me
         E
Leave me guessing darling
C#m         B                   A
    Then I guess you're not for me
            A
When you're talking
                E
Talking with an old friend
C#m            B               A
    And you decide you must be free

[Chorus]
       E        A
Tell me why, why woman
C#m        B                  A
    Can we leave a good thing be?
       E        A
Tell me why, why woman
C#m             B             A
    Did you give up so easily?

[Verse 2]
           A
When you're looking
                 E
Looking for some heat now
C#m            B            A
    And I'm as cold as cold can be
          A
And you're talking
                  E
Talking about a change now
C#m           B                      A
    But those changes aren't with me

[Chorus]
     E          A
Tell me why, why woman
C#m             B                  A
    Can we just leave a good thing be?
       E        A
Tell me why, why woman
C#m             B
    Can we just be happy?

[Bridge]
F#               C#m
    Better leave it alone
B                        F#
    Let it work out by itself
                C#m
My friends keep telling me, no
B                              F#
    Why she's not with nobody else
               C#m     B     F#
Oh but I don't know

[Chorus]
        E       A
Tell me why, why woman
C#m             B                 A
    Can we just leave a good thing be?
        E       A
Tell me why, why woman
     C#m              B                    A
Just stick around and work it out with me
