AIN'T NO REASON - Brett Dennen
Tabbed by: Bryce
E-mail:
Tuning: Standard tuning, capo 5th fret. This is a finger picking style song,
so you can play it however you'd like (chords are above). After the intro the
finger picking pattern is very similar for the rest of the song. I think all
C chords are played the same with the 3,0h2 3 2p0 (the second C chord here)

There ain't nFo reason things are this Cway.
It's how they always bGeen and they intend to stay. Am
I cGan't explaiFn why we live this Cway.
G Strum and rest
We do it every day.
Preachers on the Fpodium speaking of Csaints.
Prophets on the sGidewalk begging for Amchange.
OlGd ladies Flaughing from the fire Cescape,
Cursing my Gname.
I gotta a basket full of Flemons and they all taste Cthe same,
A window and aG pigeon with a broken wAming,
GYou can spend your Fwhole life working for sComething,
Just to have it tGaken away.
People walkF around pushing back their Cdebts,
Wearing paychecGks like necklaces aAmnd bracelets,
GTalking about nothiFng, not thinking about Cdeath,
Every little hGeartbeat, every little Ambreath.
GPeople walk a Ftightrope on a razors Cedge.
Carrying their Ghurt and hatred and Amweapons.
GIt could be a Fbomb, or a bullet, or a Cpen,
Or a thought, or a Gword, or a sentence.
There ain't no Freason things are this Cway.
Its how they've always Gbeen and they intend to Amstay.
GI don't know Fwhy I say the things I Csay,
But I say them Ganyway.
Am F, G
But love will come set me free.
Love will come set me Amfree, I Fdo Gbelieve.
Love will come set me Amfree, I kFnow it Gwill.
Love will come set me Amfree, yeFs. G
Prison waFlls still standing Ctall.
Some thingsG never change at Amall.
GKeep on building Fprisons, gonna fill them aCll.
Keep on building Gbombs, gonna drop them all.
The wind blows Fwild and I may Cmove.
But politicians Glie and I am not Amfooled.
YGou don't need no Freason or a three pieceC suit,
To argue the tGruth.
The air on my sFkin and the world under my tCoes
Slavery Gstitched into the fabric of my cAmlothes
GChaos and Fcommotion wherever I Cgo,
Love I try to Gfollow.
Am F, G
But love will come set me free.
Love will come set me Amfree, I Fdo Gbelieve.
Love will come set me Amfree, I kFnow it Gwill.
Love will come set me AmfreeFeee, yGes.
There ain't no Freason things are this Cway.
Its how they've always Gbeen and they intend to Amstay.
G F C Strum through to the end
I can't explain why we live this way.
We do it every day.
