This Is Why

Intro Em  A 

Em 
If you have an opinion 

Maybe you should shove it 
    A 
Or maybe you could scream it 

Might be best to keep it 
        C 
To yourself 
        Em 
To yourself 

  Em 
This is why I don't leave the house 

You say the coast is clear 

But you won't catch me out 
      C 
Oh, why? 
          Am 
This is why

 Em 
Better have conviction 

'Cause we were crimes of passion 
    A 
Survival of the fittest 

You're either with us or 

                        C 
You can keep it to yourself 
        Am 
To yourself 
        C 
To yourself, yourself, yourself 
        Em 
To yourself 

  Em 
This is why I don't leave the house 

You say the coast is clear 

But you won't catch me out 
      C 
Oh, why? 
          Am 
This is why 

  Em 
This is why I don't leave the house 

You say the coast is clear 

But you won't catch me out 
      C 
Oh, why? 
          Am  
This is why 

( Em ) 

Am             Em 
   One step beyond your door 
    C 
It might as well have been a free fall 
Am             Em 
   One step beyond your door 
 C 
Fallin' down an endless hall 
Am             Em 
   One step beyond your door 
 C 
Might as well have been a free fall 
Am             Em 
   One step beyond your door 
         C 
And I'm fallin' like a cannonball 

  Em 
This is why I don't leave the house 

You say the coast is clear 

But you won't catch me out 
      C 
Oh, why? 
          Am 
This is why 

  Em 
This is why I don't leave the house 

You say the coast is clear 

But, oh no, won't catch me out 
      C 
Oh, why? 
          Am 
This is why
