Tell Me Why

Neil Young


C 			    D
Sailing heart-ships through broken harbors
Am7                     G
Out on the waves in the night
C                       D
Still the searcher must ride the dark horse
Am7                 G
Racing alone in his fright

D       Am7, C, G, C, G, D Am7, C, G
Tell me why.                       Tell me why.
      Bm7                              C
Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself
            D             C
When you're old enough to repay
    Bm              Em Em, C, D, A, C/D, G
But young enough to sell?

C                  C
Tell me lies later. Come and see me
Am7                 G
I'll be around for awhile.
C               D
I am lonely but you can free me
Am7                     G
All in the way that you smile.

D        Am7, C, G, C, G, D Am7, C, G
Tell me why.              Tell me why.
Bm7                                     C
Is it hard to make arrangements with yourself
D                           C
When you're old enough to repay
Bm                  Em Em, C, D, A, C/D, G
But young enough to sell?
