E
The drumset is gone
                   A
And the rug it was on
 A
Is still here screaming at me
           E
Why did you take it all away?
                         A
Why did you take it all away?
   E
And the dialing of the phone
A
Is no longer fun
                          E
Since you've been done with me
    E
And you don't want to talk with me at all
                       A
Why'd you take it all away?
  A
I did nothing wrong
                    E
I don't believe it, I don't believe it
  E
I don't believe your reasoning
A
Now I understand you're a human
                                E
And you've got to lie, you're a man
  E
And you've got to get what you want
                    A
How you want it but so do I
  A
And I wanted to try


[Chorus]
                        E
Why did you not want to try?
  E
Why did you take it all away?
                        A
Why did you not want to try?
  A
Why did you take it all away?
                        E
Why did you not want to try?
  E
Why did you take it all away?
                        A
Why did you not want to try?
  A
Why did you take it all away?


[Post-Chorus]
E
Why did you take it all away? (You took it all away)
A
Why did you take it all away? (You took it all away, took it)
E
Why did you take it all away? (You took it all away)
A
Why did you take it all away? (You took it all away)


[Verse 2]
E
The drumset is gone
                   A
And the rug it was on

Is still here screaming at me (You took it all away, took it)
            E
Why did you take it all away?
                          A
Why did you take it all away? (You took it all away, took it)
   E
And the dialing of the phone (You took it all away, took it)
A
Is no longer fun (You took it all away, took it)
                            E
Since you've been done with me
   E
And you don't want to talk with me at all
                      A
Why'd you take it all away?
   A
I did nothing wrong
                    E
I don't believe it, I don't believe it

I don't believe your reasoning
A
Now I understand you're a human
                                E
And you've got to lie, you're a man
    E
And you've got to get what you want
                     A
How you want it, but so do I
   A
And I wanted to try


[Chorus]
                        E
Why did you not want to try?
    E
Why did you take it all away?
                        A
Why did you not want to try?
    A
Why did you take it all away?
                        E
Why did you not want to try?
    E
Why did you take it all away?
                        A
Why did you not want to try?
    A
Why did you take it all away? And
