Why Bother Lyrics

Why Bother by Allison Weiss
The picking is fairly random and you can pick up the general idea just by listening to the song.
Something like this works for the verse:
And the chorus is like this:
I'm not a mystery everything I think is written down
keeping me from keeping you around
can't keep my feet on the ground
and there's a million ways I can mess it up I always do
making plans and making them too soon
I can't make much sense out of you
why bother I'd rather call it off than wait for it to work
and why bother I bet you're better off with some other hopeless jerk
and I like you but what can I do
there's too much space to make you stay
and there's a price to pay for doing what I do but I can't stop
I open up my heart like it's my job
I tell myself it's over but it's not
I've got a running list of all the times I've tried to break my fall
and all the times I've wished that you would call
and all the times I've wished for you at all
why bother I'd rather call it off than wait for it to work
and why bother I bet you're better off with some other hopeless jerk
and I like you but what can I do
there's too much space to make you stay
INSTRUMENTAL
I'm not a mystery everything I think is written down
yeah everything I think is written down
keeping me from keeping you around
why bother I'd rather call it off than wait for it to work
and why bother I bet you're better off with some other hopeless jerk
and I like you but what can I do
there's too much space to make you stay
there's too much space to make you stay
