WHY SO SAD by THE MANIC STREET PREACHERS
Lyrics by Nicky Wire, Music by James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
From the album 'Know Your Enemy' (2001).
This is just a brilliant, brilliant song, why it wasn't number 1 is
beyond me. Best thing they've done for years.
A
A Things get clear when I feel Bmfree
C#m But what happens next comes easiDly
E What gentle hands you brought to F#mme
When your Aeyes feel weak and Ctired it truly Ahits
A When I missed you you were my Bmlife
(When I missed you you were my C#mlife)
So at ease in the midnight Dsky
(So at ease in the midnightE sky)
My insides will look like F#mwire
(My insides will look...)
ParaAlysed as if to Cprove my thoAughts
F#m So why so sad
C#m You live and you love
F#m So why so sad
C#m (Cm)
You've given all the love
Bm Searching forE the dead sea scrolls
So Gwhy, so F#why so sad
A My smile as real as a hyeBmna's
(My smile as real as a hyeC#mna's)
Burns an express-way to my sDkull
(Burns an express-way to my sEkull)
Well I will stick myself toF#mgether again
My spirit, Asoul and body Cknow I can't preAtend
F#m So why so sad
C#m You live and you love
F#m So why so sad
C#m (Cm)
You've given all the love
Bm Searching forE the dead sea scrolls
So Gwhy, so F#why so sad
D G (x2)
A C Bb
F#m So why so sad
C#m You live and you love
F#m So why so sad
C#m (Cm)
You've given all the love
Bm Searching forE the dead sea scrolls
So Gwhy, so F#why so sad
So Gwhy, so F#why so sad
So Gwhy, so F#why so sad
