[Intro]
|G |G |G |G |
|G |G |G |G |

[Verse]
G
There's many great loves in history that we know about

But a tale of two lovers that was told to me

Makes me want to scream and shout
Am
Like Romeo and Juliet
D
A love story you won't forget

[Chorus]
(D) G C
Tell me why, tell me why did they destroy a love like that?
G C
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why did they do that?

[Verse]
G
Snowball Roach and Nellie Austin said that they loved each other well

Oh and I don't think that they argued often

But somebody broke the spell
Am
Yeah they broke the spell and broke their hearts
D
And they drifted far apart

[Chorus]
(D) G C
And tell me why, tell me why did they destroy a love like that?
G C
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why did they do that?

[Bridge]
(C) G
Well they tore two hearts apart
C
Left them bleeding all alone
F C G
And they threw them in a river made of stone

Oh they're dead now

[Instrumental]
