 (if you insist on strumming chords for the entire song, Am Am F Em sounds okay on the intro)
Where  do you go
 When the day  is long
And  where does your heart beat
 And  who is wrong
 Why do I feel  this way
 Why do I kneel
 How could I let  it go
 Why do I feel
 (pause here; strum 4 quick Fs, then hold out the C)
 Why do I feel
 Why
How
Follow  me home
 Through the,  the maize  and awn
I'll  show you the road
 That I led  you the wrong way on
 Why did I go  that way
 Why do I steal
 How could I let  her go
 Why do I feel
 Oh why did I go  that way
 Why do I steal
 How could I let  her go
 Why do I feel
 Why do I feel
 Why
 **A. then there&8217;s a little break (call it A) here with sort of a harmonica solo
 (transcribed for guitar below), go through Am F C C twice w/o vocals**
 Why did I go  that way
 Why do I need
 How could I let  her go
 Why do I feel
 **B. at this point the harmonica cuts out and a really cool violin line (also
 transcribed for guitar below) starts, but there&8217;s no gap in the vocals**
 Oh why did I go  that way
 How could I steal
 Oh how could I
 How could I
 How could I
 How could I
 How could I

 there's also a cool little guitar line that pops up between every change from C to Am
 once you hit A until the end (listen to the song for timing).
