F#m7       C#m7              F#m7
Why do you do it, why do you do it
           C#m7              F#m7
Why do you do it, why do you do it

RAUL MIDÓN:
(Some people ask me: why are you're doing this thing
How come you're playing music for people
Getting up early in the morning just to catch a plane, a bus or a train
Going insane, fanning a flame, so then why-
Is it for love? Is it for self-expression?
Is it to combat depression? Is it to make people happy?
I mean, I love it
I can hear it
I can listen when somebody smiles at me)

F#m7           C#m7           F#m7
When I'm happy, when I'm sad
          C#m7                  F#m7
When I'm surly, and when I'm glad
          C#m7                 F#m7
When that sunshine turns to rain
      C#m7                    F#m7
And I just can't stand the pain
      C#m7                F#m7
And I feel I'm going insane
       C#m7              F#m7
Till I get back home again

         C#m7              F#m7
When I think I can't compete
      C#m7                   F#m7
And I just can't find the beat
         C#m7              F#m7
When I'm old, when I'm young
         C#m7             F#m7
When my final saw this song
        C#m7                F#m7
I shall hope we have some fun
         C#m7            F#m7
Spreading love to everyone
    C#m7             F#m7
