[Verse 1]

Dmaj7            Amaj7        Dmaj7            Amaj7
Daddy plays the ashtray, baby starts to cry,
Cmaj7           Gmaj7            Amaj7
Lady wants to know the reason why.
Dmaj7           Amaj7        Dmaj7            Amaj7
Daddy's just like Coltrane, baby's just like Miles,
Cmaj7            Gmaj7             Amaj7
Lady's just like heaven, when she smiles.


[Chorus]

                   Am7           D9
The lady wants to know, she wants to know the reason,
        Am7                    D9
Got to know the reason why.
        D9                 Gm7                      C9
This man has got to go, this man is always leaving,
Gm7                    C9
How he hates to say goodbye.
                        Fm7           Bb9
But what she doesn't know, is there really is no reason,
Fm7                 Bb9
Really is no reason why.

She's got to know the reason why.
