Delbert McClinton, Why Me? (1992)
Key: :[C] (w: Fred Knobloch, Delbert McClinton) (BPM: 160)

INTRO: [C]

VERSE 1:
I [C] met her in a night club over on the lower east [F] side
I was [G] workin' with my head down tryin' to keep the groove a-[C]-live
She [C] looked like a bunny out of Playboy maga-[F]-zine
I just [G] had to meet her; she was the cutest thing I'd ever [C] seen

VERSE 2:
She had [C] high heel boots, blonde hair and big blue [F] eyes
The way she was [G] movin' to the music had me hypno-[C]-tized
I [C] ran up to her, said, "Baby, what's your [F] name?"
I [G] should've know better; now I've only got myself to [C] blame

CHORUS:
[C] Why, why, why [F] me?
[G] Fallin' like this is the very last thing I [C] need
If I [C] had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and [F] leave
I said [C] why, [G] why, why [C] me?

BREAK: [over VERSE]

VERSE 2:
[C] Started drinkin' champagne, makin' every joint in [F] town
[G] Bam A hundred dollars every time I turned a-[C]-round
[C] 'bout the time my money ran out, you know, my honey was [F] gone
And I was [G] cryin' out loud to myself, as I was walkin' [C] home

REPEAT CHORUS:
