Why Don't You Love Me

WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME
Words and music by Hank Williams, Sr.

Well, [G] Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do
How come you treat me like a [D7] worn out shoe
My [G] hair's still curly and my [C] eyes are still blue
[G] Why Don't You Love Me Like You [D7] Used To [G] Do.

Ain't had no [C] lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
in a [D7] long, long [G] while
We don't get nearer or further or closer
than a country [D7] mile;

Why don't you spark me like you used to do
And say sweet nothin's like you used to coo
I'm the same old trouble that you've always been through
So, Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.

Well, why don't you be just like you used to be
How come you find so many faults with me
Somebody's changed so let me give you a clue
Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.

Ain't had no lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
in a long, long while
We don't get nearer or further
than a country mile;

Why don't you say the things you used to say
What makes you treat me like a piece of clay
My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.

C C/B Am7 Am7/G
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill;

C Em Gm7 C7
He sounds too blue to fly..

F Fm C Am
The midnight train is whining low

G C G7 C G Am7 G/B
I'm so lonesome I could cry.


I've never seen a night so long,
When time goes crawling by;
The moon just went behind a cloud;
I'm so lonesome I could cry.

Did you ever see a Robin weep
When leaves begin to die?
That means he's lost the will to live;
I'm so lonesome I could cry.

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky;
And as I wonder where you are,
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
