-- Verse --
[A]If only you'd had known me before the accident
[A]For with that grand collision came a grave consequence
[A]Receptors overloaded, they burst and disconnect
[A]'Til there was little feeling, please work with what is left
Riff 1
[A]Oh I need not be flattered that you've never been here before
[A]So there's no need to mention that you've no firsts anymore
[A]But if you let me be your skyline, I'll let you be the wave
[A]That reduces me to rubble that looked safe from far away
-- Chorus --
[A]I don't know why I don't know why
[F#m]I return to the scenes of these crimes
[A]Where the hedgerows slowly wind
[F#m]Through the ghosts of Beverly Drive
[A]I don't know why I don't know why
[F#m]I don't know what I expect to find
[A]Where all the news is second hand
[Bm]And everything just goes on as planned
Riff 1
-- Verse --
You wanna teach but not be taught
And I wanna sell but not be bought
[A]So let us not be lonesome
[A]So let us not be lonesome
[A]Lost in between our needs and wants (our needs and wants)
-- Chorus --
[A]I don't know why I don't know why
[F#m]I return to the scenes of these crimes
[A]Where the hedgerows slowly wind
[F#m]Through the ghosts of Beverly Drive
[A]I don't know why I don't know why
[F#m]I don't know what I expect to find
[A]Where all the news is second hand
[Bm]And everything just goes on as planned
[A]I don't know why I don' know why[F#m]
[A]I don't know why I don't know why[F#m]
[A]I don't know why I don't know why[F#m]
[A]I don't know why I don't know why[Bm]
