Why Cant I Leave Her Alone Chords & Lyrics - George Strait

Capo 1

Intro: [D] [G]

I k[D]now I don't want her, I swear that's a fact
But the th[G]ought of somebody else rubbing her back
Just k[D]ills me
Oh, it ki[A]lls me
I k[D]now she don't love me, I know she ain't home
So w[G]hy in the hell do I pick up this phone
And c[D]all her'
Why do I c[A]all her'

[CHORUS]
I've dr[D]opped by her momma's stoned out of my mind
Just to h[G]ear that it's over from her one more time
As i[A]f I didn't see that red Chevy not slowing down
Loaded down and rolling down our r[G]oad
Yeah, she's a[Em]lready left
So w[A]hy can't I leave her al[D]one [G]

I[D]'ve wrote her letters signed I was a fool
S[G]he wrote me back saying go find a stool
And dr[D]ink one
Like you've al[A]ways done
So tha[D]t's what I did 'cause that's what I do
Backsl[G]iding, hiding away from the truth
'Til the te[D]ars run
Oh, h[A]ere comes one

[CHORUS]

Interlude thingy [D] [G] [A]

[CHORUS]

I kn[D]ow I don't want her, I swear that's a fact
G *No strum
But the thought of somebody else rubbing her back
No strum* D
Just kills me

*Note the chorus changes a little the last time, so just keep strummin' the A to fit in
the extra words*
