Ain't No Reason

Dm
"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
There ain't no Bbreason things are this Fway
It's how they' always Cbeen and they intend to Dmstay
I cCan't Bbexplain why we live this Fway
We do it every Cday
Preachers on the Bbpodium speakin' of Fsaints
Prophets on the Csidewalk beggin' for Dmchange
Old Cladies Bblaughin' from the fire Fescape
Cursin' my Cname
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
But love will come set me Dmfree Bb C
Love will come set me fDmree, BbI do Cbelieve
Love will come set me fDmree, BbI know it Cwill
Love will come set me fDmree, Bbyes C
Prison Bbwalls still standin' Ftall
Some Cthings never change at Dmall
KeepC on buildin' Bbprisons, gonna fill them Fall
Keep on buildin' Cbombs, gonna drop them all
Workin' your Bbfingers bare to the Fbones
Breakin' your Cback, make you sell your Dmsoul
LikCe a Bblung that's filled with Fcoal
Suffocatin' Cslow
The wind blows wild and I may move
But politicians lie and I am not fooled
You don't need no reason or a three-piece suit
To argue the truth
The air on my skin and world under my toes
Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes
Chaos and commotion wherever I go
Love I try to follow
But love will come set me Dmfree Bb C
Love will come set me fDmree, BbI do Cbelieve
Love will come set me fDmree, BbI know it wCill
Love will come set me fDmree, Bbyes C
There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they' always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way
We do it every day
