This Is Why Cifras

This is how I play the song acoustically, it doesn't really match the recording that
well but it sounds good for covers
 
Chords:
 
G (320033)
Em (022033)
Cadd9 (032033)
D (200233) i'm not sure of the name of this chord but i always use it in replace of the
D chord when playing acoustic songs in this style
 
I play on capo 2 or 3 but it doesn't really matter just whichever suits your voice
 
 
G                             Cadd9
You got my attention then you stomped it out,
G                                              Cadd9
You're there and then you're gone, what's that all about?
G                              Cadd9
You came on so strong then you backed it off,
Em                            D
When did you get the nerve to call it love.
 
Em
You're a part of my past now,
G
I'm making you history.
Cadd
Don't act surprised now,
D
Don't say you didn't see it coming.
 
G
So if you're wondering why I'm leaving,
Em
Stop a second and count the reasons;
Cadd9
You don't listen, don't care, don't try.
D
That's the reason and this is why.
 
G
There's no way for you to stop the bleeding,
Em
You don't get it, I've got my reasons;
Cadd9
You don't listen, don't care, don't try.
D
That's the reason and this is why.
 
G                              Cadd9
You got my affection, then you threw it out,
G                                     Cadd9
I'm right and then I'm wrong, all you got is doubt.
 
Em
You're a part of my past now,
G
Nothing but a memory.
Cadd9
I sent you to the lost and found,
D
Don't say you didn't see it coming.
 
G
So if you're wondering why I'm leaving,
Em
Stop a second and count the reasons;
Cadd9
You don't listen, don't care, don't try.
D
That's the reason and this is why.
 
G
There's no way for you to stop the bleeding,
Em
You don't get it, I've got my reasons;
Cadd9
You don't listen, don't care, don't try.
D
That's the reason and this is why.
 
Em
Am I right?
G
Am I wrong?
Cadd9
When you're there,
D
And you're gone.
Em
It's the truth,
G
It might hurt,
Cadd9
But think back,
D
Was it worth,
 
G
All the pain and misery,
Em
Oblivious while I'm dying.
Cadd9
The one regret that I can see is,
D (one strum)
How I let you get to me.
 
G (build up)
So if you're wondering why I'm leaving,
Em (build up)
Stop a second and count the reasons;
Cadd9
You don't listen, don't care, don't try.
D
That's the reason and this is why.
 
G
There's no way for you to stop the bleeding,
Em

D                              G
That's the reason and this is why.
