Verse

If you're [Bm]thin, poor little [D]walking disease

You [D]can't can't win, no

Bridge

[F#m] And you [A]try, you try so [Bm]hard[D]
[F#m] But it's [A]wearing on your [Bm]heart[D]

But you [Bm]pay, you pay for [D]it
You can't [F#m]win, [E]no
You can't [D]win no

Verse

If you [Bm]speak, you'll only [D]piss 'em off
If you [A]don't, you're [E]another robot
If you [Bm]stop, they'll just [D]say you quit
If you [A]don't, you might [E]lose your shit
You can't [Bm]win, [D]no
You can't [A]win, [E]no
You can't [Bm]win, [D]nooo

Chorus

[A] The one who doesn't quite fit [E]in
Underdressed under your [Bm]skin
Oh, a [D]walking disaster
[A] Everytime you try to [E]fly
You end up falling out of [Bm]line, oh
You [D]can't can't win, no
[A] The one who doesn't quite fit [E]in
Underdressed under your [Bm]skin
Oh, a [D]walking disaster
[A] Everytime you try to [E]fly

18. Why Don't You Try? (Itunes Bonus Track)
Chords:
[G] [D] [Em] [F]
[G] I Am A [D]woman
Cut in [Em]two
By [F]ambitious pride
[G] Stuck in my [D]ways
Between [Em]you
And my [F]other life
Now [Am]I have been around enough to know when love has [C]ended
But [Am]I believe that you and I deserve to be [D]extended
So why don't you [G]try[D]
To make me [Em]stay
When it's [F]time to go
Why don't you [G]try[D]
To stand in my [Em]way
Cause we [F]both know
I can't stop [G]myself
Our empty [D]house
You [Em]occupy
When I'm [F]far away
[G] Heavier [D]hearts won't [Em]justify
Why I'm [F]gone today
Now[Am] I have hung a cloud above our lives from always [C]leaving
[Am]Figured you would at least make me give a better [D]reason
So why don't you [G]try[D]
To make me [Em]stay
When it's [F]time to go
Why don't you [G]try[D]
To stand in my [Em]way
Cause we [F]both know
I can't stop [G]myself
Instrumental part: G D Em F x2
(I have no idea how this part is really played in the recording so I just
put that
chord progression instead)
[Am] In the early mornings when I'm [D]up before dawn
[Am] You say "why don't you stay" but you [D]keep sleeping on
[G]Maybe you're just [F]used to me [E]being gone
Cause if [Am]you know that I don't want [D]to go
So why don't you [G]try[Em][D]
When it's [F]time to go
Why don't you [G]try[D]
To stand in my [Em]way
Cause we [F]both know
I can't stop [G]myself
Why [D]don't you
Why [Em]don't you try
When it's [F]time to go, oh
Cause [G]I don't want to have to go
And be the one to [D]leave you holding on alone
But this, [Em]this is my goodbye
So [F]why don't you try
[G] [D] [Em] [F]
