[Verse 1]
---------------------
B
Why does she sing
E                  B
 Her sad songs for me, I'm not the one
To tenderly bring
E              B
 Her soft sympathy, I've just begun
   F#
To see my way clear and it's plain
                 B
If I stop I will fall
         F#
I can lay down a tear for her pain
                       B
Just a tear and that's all
B7 E                            B
    What does she want me to do?
    E
She says that she knows
     F#
That moments are rare
         E              B
I suppose that it's true
E                   F#
Then on she goes to say I don't care
             E         B
Aw, she knows that I do

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F#                                             B
Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
F#                                            B
Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?

[Verse 2]
---------------------
              B
She'd like to think I was cruel
E                       B
 But she knows that's a lie for I would be
No more than a tool
E                    B
 If I allowed her to cry all over me
      F#
Ah my sorrow is real
                              B
Even though I can't change my plans
                F#
If she could see how I feel
                       B
Then I know she'd understand
B7            E                           B
  Ah does she actually think I'm to blame?
     E                       F#
Does she really believe that some word of mine
             E             B
Could relieve all her pain?
          E
Can't she see that she grieves
     F#                           E
Just because she's been blindly deceived
       B
By her shame

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
       F#                                             B
Ah but maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
F#                                            B
Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?



[Verse 3]
---------------------
       B
Ah but nothin's what it seems
E                        B
 Maybe she'll start some day to realize
If she abandons her dreams
E                              B
 Then all the words she can say are only lies
   F#
Ah when will she see that to gain
           B
Is only to lose
         F#
All that she offers me are her chains
               B
And I got to refuse
B7            E                          B
  Ah but it's only to herself that she's lied
    E
She likes to pretend
        F#                              E
There's something that she should defend
              B
With her pride
    E
And I don't intend
   F#                    E
To stand here and be the friend
                   B
From whom she must hide

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
F#                                             B
Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
F#                                            B
Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong?
       F#                                             B
Ah but maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song
