Don’t Know Why

This song was originally composed and released by Jesse Harris in 1999. The cover by Norah Jones in 2002 was a critical success, winning Grammy Awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. It remains Jones’ biggest hit single in the United States to date. Because of her wonderful, slow singing style, I have included many dots in this TAB. Please treat them as half beats and don’t hurry the melody. Also, for a couple of lines, she goes quite high which takes you far up the neck on the strumstick. For this reason, I have posted two TABS. The second one moves the high notes to the middle string and is intended for the Merlin, but it works on the strumstick as well. Try them both out.
