  What is the reason for it? Why is it there?
Am         B          Am Em
  Is it my body or my brain?
Am          B            Am                B

  Twenty-four hours every day

Am            Em
Love is time, love is space

Love will help the fireplace to come inside

  Is it my body or my brain?
Am       B             Am           B

  That it will all make sense someday

Love is war, love is peace
B              G
Love is such a tasty treat
    Am   B7   E
But when it's done
Am           Em
Love is all, love is clear
B                  G              Am   B7  Em
Love will take you out of here to find someone

  That it will all make sense someday
Am           B               Am           B
  Does it do something useful? What is it for?
Am               B                   Am Em
 'Cause everyone else is the same as me
Am           B            Am          B
  What do we know about it? We cannot say
Am             B                 Am Em
  What does it do when they're asleep?


♫ Instrumental:
Am Em Am Em
Am Em Am Em

Am            B
  What is the reason for it?
Am            B
  What is the reason for it?
