Aint No Reason by Brett Dennen Ain't No Reason By Brett Dennen Bb Dm There ain't no reason things are this way Bb Dm C It's how they've always been and they intend to stay Bb Dm I can't explain why we live this way C We do it everyday Bb Dm Preachers on the podium speaking the saints Bb Dm C Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change Bb Dm Old ladies laugh from the fire escape C Cursing my name Bb Dm I got a basket full of lemons and they always taste the same Bb Dm C A window and a pidgen with a broken wing Bb Dm You could spend you whole life working for something C Just to have it taken away Bb Dm People walk around pushing back their desks Bb Dm C Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets Bb Dm Talking about nothing, not thinking about death C Dm (no bottom E string) C Every little heartbeat every little breath Bb Dm People walk a tight rope on a razor's edge Bb Dm C Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons Bb Dm It could be a bomb, or a bullet or a pin C Or a thought, or a word, or a sentence Bb Dm There ain't no reason things are this way Bb Dm C It's how they've always been and they intend to stay Bb Dm I dont't know why i say the things i say C But i say them anyway Dm Bb C 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 Bb Dm Prison walls still standing tall Bb Dm C Some things never change at all Bb Dm Keep on building prisons gonna fill them all C Dm (no bottom E string) C Keep on building bombs gonna drop them all Bb Dm Working your fingers bare to the bone Bb Dm C Breaking your back to make yourself useful Bb Dm Laugh along, it's filled with cold C Suffocating slow Bb Dm The wind blows wild and i may move Bb Dm C But politicians lie and i am not fooled Bb Dm You don’t need no reason nor a three-piece suit C To argue the truth Bb Dm The air on my skin, and the world under my toes Bb Dm C Slavery stitched in to the fabric of my clothes Bb Dm Chaos and commotion wherever i go C Love i try to follow Dm Bb C 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 Bb Dm There ain't no reason things are this way Bb Dm C It's how they've always been and they intend to stay Bb Dm I can't explain why we live this way C We do it everyday www.TAB6.com
