[Verse]
A/E E A/E E
Your friends are all laughing at something you're saying
A/E E A/E E
Maybe you're funny or maybe they're nice
A/E E A/E E
You used to be certain without hesitation
A/E E A/E E
But something is different and now you think twice
D E
Why don't I feel like I should?
D C#m E
Why don't I feel like I should?
[Verse]
A/E E A/E E
You made an equation you use on occasions
A/E E A/E E
A formula written so you know how to act
A/E E A/E E
It tells you to smile when you're at celebrations
A/E E A/E E
Or to take it down a notch when you should show some tact
D E
Why don't I feel like I should?
D C#m E
Why don't I feel like I should?
[Chorus]
A
You used to be better at everything that you do
A/F# E
You used to be better but now something is strange
A
You've got to forget her, you've got to let him go
A/F# E
Hadn't you promised that you would never change?
A
All these instances chip away at the wood
B E
Until you no longer feel like you should.
[Verse]
A/E E A/E E
Encourage me blindly and I'll encourage you blindly
A/E E A/E E
Together we'll go out and walk into walls
A/E E A/E E
If you need to find me I'll be folding sweaters
A/E E A/E E
If you need to find me I'll be stuck at the mall
D E
Why don't I live like I should?
D C#m E
Why don't I feel like I should?
[Chorus]
A
You used to be better at everything that you do
A/F# E
You used to be better but now something is strange
A
You've got to forget her, you've got to let him go
A/F# E
Hadn't you promised that you would never change?
A
All these instances chip away at the wood
B E
Until you no longer feel like you should.
[Bridge]
A B
Something has changed
C#m E
It's incurable, I'm told
A B E
Why don't I feel the way I should?
A B
Something has changed
C#m E
There's a slant all over the world
A B
Why don't I feel the way I
C#m D
Why won't I feel the way I
A B E
Why can't I feel the way I should?
[Verse]
A/E E A/E E
Your friends are all laughing at something you're saying
A/E E A/E E
Maybe you're funny or maybe they're nice.
