PHIL COLLINS - DOESN'T ANYBODY STAY TOGETHER ANYMORE

(taken from the Serious Tour live concert in Berlin,
Waldbuehne, 15-Jul-1990)

[We're gonna do an old song now. We're gonna do an old song
we've done some new things to it, and I hope you like it.]

You keep on walking so you don't fall down, it's the same old story
You keep on hiding so you can't be found, it's the same old story
But I know you, you're the one who ran
And I know why, it's because you can
That's alright, I don't mind, I'm just tryin' out

Chorus:
But I wonder why doesn't anybody stay together anymore
I wonder why doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Yes I wonder why doesn't anybody stay together anymore
Just wonder why doesn't anybody stay together anymore

My friends keep falling and they don't get up, it's the same old story
One says white and the other one black, it's the same old story
But I don't know why you keep emotions warded
Your hat's on your sleeve, but your sleeve is rolled up
That's alright, 'cos I don't mind, I'm just tryin' out

chorus

Things can change from a misunderstanding
Nobody talks, nobody breathes, no, makes me wonder why

(Solo)

You keep on looking for that higher ground, it's the same old story
Your glass is empty and the chips are down, it's the same old story
But I know you, you're the one who ran
And I know why, it's because you can
That's alright, I don't mind, I'm just tryin' out

chorus

Yes I wonder why, yes I wonder why
Oh I wonder why, yes I wonder why
Oh yeah, I wonder why, I wonder why
I wonder why
