Why Don’t You Love Me (Like You Used To Do?) --- Hank Williams

Well, [G]why don’t you love me like you used to do?
How come you treat me like a [D7]worn-out shoe?
My [G]hair’s still curly and my [C]eyes are still blue.
[G]Why don’t you love me like you [D7]used to [G]do? 

          Ain’t had no [C]lovin’ like a-huggin’ and a-kissin’ in a [D7]long, long [G]while.
          We don’t get nearer or further or closer than a country [D7]mile. 

[G]Why don’t you spark me like you used to do?
And say sweet nothin’s like you [D7]used to coo?
I’m the [G]same old trouble that you’ve [C]always been through.
So, [G]why don’t you love me like you [D7]used to [G]do? 

Well, [G]why don’t you be just like you used to be?
How come you find so many [D7]faults with me?
[G]Somebody’s changed, so let me [C]give you a clue.
[G]Why don’t you love me like you [D7]used to [G]do? 

          Ain’t had no [C]lovin’ like a-huggin’ and a-kissin’ in a [D7]long, long [G]while.
          We don’t get nearer or further or closer than a country [D7]mile. 

[G]Why don’t you say the things you used to say?
What makes you treat me like a [D7]piece of clay?
My [G]hair’s still curly and my [C]eyes are still blue.
[G]Why don’t you love me like you [D7]used to [G]do?
