Why Did It Have To Be Me

Intro chord: G 
 
 G                       D 
When you were lonely, you needed a man 
 G                      D 
Someone to lean on, well I understand 
 C 
It‘s only natural 
   D7                        G  D7  G  A 
But why did it have to be me 
 G                  D 
Nights can be empty, nights can be cold 
 G                     D 
So you were looking for someone to hold 
 C 
That‘s only natural 
   D7                        G   G7   C 
But why did it have to be me 
 
 C 
I was so lonesome, I was blue 
 Gmaj7                                    D7 
I couldn‘t help it, it had to be you and I 
                                     G   G7   C 
Always thought you knew the reason why 
 C 
I only wanted a little love affair 
 A 
Now I can see you are beginning to care 
   G/B   C 
But baby, believe me 
 A7          G/D     D   C  G  D7 
It‘s better to forget me 
 
Men are toys in the game that you play 
When you get tired, you throw them away 
That‘s only natural 
But why did it have to be me 
Falling in love with a woman like you 
Happens so quickly, there‘s nothing to do 
It‘s only natural 
But why did it have to be me 
 
I was so lonesome...
