"Ain't No Reason" – Brett Dennen This should be a 100% accurate chord version, I know Brett picks out some of the notes the record but you can try figure it out yourself. Look out for the quick Dm C in the middle of each verse (I’ve highlighted the first) Bb F There ain't no reason things are this way C Dm It's how they' always been and they intend to stay C Bb F I can't explain why we live this way C We do it every day Bb F Preachers on the podium speakin' of saints C Dm Prophets on the sidewalk beggin' for change C Bb F Old ladies laughin' from the fire escape C Cursin' my name Repeat these chords again through each verse I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same A window and a pigeon with a broken wing You can spend your whole life workin' for something Just to have it taken away People walk around pushin' back their debts Wearin' paychecks like necklaces and bracelets Talkin' 'bout nothin', not thinkin' 'bout death Every little heartbeat, every little breath People walk a tightrope on a razor's edge Carryin' their hurt and hatred and weapons It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen Or a thought or a word or a sentence There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they' always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway Dm Bb C But love will come set me free Dm Bb C Love will come set me free, I do believe Dm Bb C Love will come set me free, I know it will Dm Bb C Love will come set me free, yes
