Chords for Reckless Kelly "How Can You Love Him (You Don't Even Like Him)." LIVE on The Texas Music Scene

_ _ _ _ Our first band [G] this week, Reckless Kelly, was on the [C] set of our pilot episode back in [G] 2009,
and they've [C] been considered family ever since.
[Bb] You know, the band [Gm] turned 21 in [C] 2017, and they continue to raise the standards of [Bb] Americana,
alt-country, and Ruth Rock.
[C] Here's the story and [G] the performance of a [C] tune off of Sunset Motel called
How [G] Can You Love Him If You [C] Don't Even Like Him?
_ Uh, How [Gm] Can You Love Him If You Don't [C] Even Like Him?
_ It's, uh, just a line I [Bb] came up with, uh, after seeing, [C] you know, a few different people that I know
[Gm] that were hanging out with somebody that [Dm] kind of tell that, it's like,
what are [C] you doing with this guy?
You don't even really like the guy, you [Bb] know?
[G] So the line came about from just seeing [D] that kind of a [C] thing, and, you know, it kind of wrote itself.
It was a really, [G] really easy song to write.
It's real short and simple [Dm] and only a couple verses, so it [C] just kind of fell together real easily. _
[Gm] It's not really based on any, you know, one [Dm] situation.
It's just kind of this broad [G]-stroke thing of something that I've seen a lot over the years.
It's just [C] two people that really don't like each other but just [G] somehow [C] decide to stay together. _
[Bb] Um, a lot of times when I have [C] a line, I'll just, _ it'll kind of [Bb] immediately lend itself to either being a slow [C] song or a rocker.
And sometimes you could go either way with it, and this one seemed like it would be kind of a [D] nice up-tempo [Am] thing.
And so I'll just grab a [G] guitar and start banging [C] around with chords and sing a line in my head,
and if I've got more than [G] one line, just kind of trying to [C] let it piece itself together.
I hardly [E] ever write a [G] melody and then add lyrics to it or write lyrics and then add the melody.
It's almost always done at the same time.
