If You Need a Reason

guitar tabs lyrics

Mason Jennings

Album : Boneclouds alternative rock PlayStop



I think that the other version of this song is way too complicated. So here's the same
but way simpler to understand.

Mason plays everything tuned a 1/2 step lower. I have too many x chromosomes so I play
in regular tuning with a capo on the third fret. Do what works for you.


Mason fingerpicks the whole song. But then again, he has a bass and drummer to back him
I tend to strum it out.


C
Got so lost that I went to church
G
Sorry God but you made it worse
C F
Made me sit behind a fence
C F
Haunted by the evidence

C
I guess you don�t want me to think
G
So instead I�ll dream and drink
C F
Got too drunk to drive home
C F
In the cab I grabbed my phone

C
And made a call I might regret
G
To a girl that I just met
C F
Lately things are not okay
C F
I just wanted to hear somebody say


C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me

C
Lovely, lovely quiet lake
G
How could this be a mistake
C F
Too dark now to see your face
C F
Your hair is blowing all over the place

C
The moon is caught in a frozen glass
G
I could not let this moment pass
C F
The sun is waiting far away
C F
Until i�ve had a chance to say

C
All that�s missing, all that�s lost
G
Every hope at any cost
C F
Every dream too good to come true
C F
Floods my heart when I�m with you

C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me

C
Got so lost that I went to church
G
Sorry God but you made it worse
C F
Made me sit behind a fence
C F
Haunted by the evidence

C
I guess you don�t want me to think
G
So instead I�ll dream and drink
C F
Got too drunk to drive home
C F
In the cab I grabbed my phone

C
And made a call I might regret
G
To a girl that I just met
C F
Lately things are not okay
C F
I just wanted to hear somebody say


C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me
C G
If you need a reason as to why you�re here
am F
You don�t need to look farther than me
