The Reason Why

	  		 
 

Intro: E  A (x4) 

verse 1 
           E 
As all the rooms are full of empties 
    A 
The wine attempts to tempt me 
E                 A 
Would you help me disappear 
          E 
And we'll let the path go hungry 
    A 
And head at last to country 
E               A 
Or a small town away from here 

 
F#m 
Maybe there we'll finally 
D                       C#m 
See there is no need to try 
G#7     A 
All our lives 
             E   A (x2) 
For a reason why 


verse 2 
                E 
'Cause when the moon is glowing dimly 
 A 
Upon our hopeful chimney 
E              A 
Trouble simply reappears 
   E 
To throw a monkey wrench in 
    A 
And hold the world's attention 
E              A 
With a show of surreal fear 

 
F#m 
Hoping for an answer 
  D                        C#m 
I glance up to indifferent skies 
        G#7  A 
There's no reply 
            E   A 
Or a reason why 
       E   A 
Reason why 


Bridge 
             D         A         E 
All we would hear is a deafening silence 
          D        A         E 
Hollywood tears in frivolous times 
   D          G#7  A 
Oh to be near your love 

Solo: E  A  (x4) 

verse 3 
        E 
You can wonder where the time went 
   A 
Or what it was it all meant 
E                      A 
It's been a life spent wondering why 

 
F#m 
Looking for a name 
   D                       C#m 
Or coat to pin the blame on 
    G#7  A 
I'm done sighing 
             E   A 
For a reason why 
       E   A 
Reason why 
       E   A 
Reason why 
       E   A 
Reason why

             D         A         E      G#7  A  D  E 
All we would hear is a deafening silence
