| I don't know | why | nobody | told you | how to unfold your | love |
| Ab | Cm | Fm | Cm | Bbm | Eb7/4 | Eb7 |
| I don't know | how | someone contr | olled you, | they bought and sold | you |
| I look at the world and I notice it's turning |
| While my guitar gently weeps |
| With every mistake we must surely be learning |
| Still my guitar gently weeps |
| I don't know how you were diverted, you were perverted too |
| I don't know how you were inverted, no one alerted you. |
