Lucy Kaplansky - One Good Reason


CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO: C majorC


Woke up scared in the middle of the night
  G+G
He reached for the bottle and turned on the light
A minorAm                    C majorC
Looked at the clock, "This can't be right

I'm not dreaming"

Turned on the TV and the radio
G+G
Elvis rocked and Elvis rolled
   A minorAm
While Jesus on his radio show
    C majorC
Said, "Pack your bags, we're leaving"


CHORUS:
A minorAm             C majorC     FF
There's a line I've crossed somewhere
              A minorAm
I left the best of me back there
             C majorC   FF
Never thought I'd end up here
                A minorAm
Guess all the best things disappear


C majorC
Whiskey is his water and it's made in hell
     G+G
From the bottom of his barrel to the bottom of his well
A minorAm                   C majorC
Nothing in this room but an empty shell

He's not dreaming


A augmentedA drunkard's regrets are a dime a dozen
 G+G
A augmentedA thousand cures and a thousand poisons
A minorAm                    C majorC
Even Elvis couldn't find one good reason

To keep believing

CHORUS:
A minorAm             C majorC     FF
There's a line I've crossed somewhere
              A minorAm
I left the best of me back there
              C majorC   FF
I never thought I'd end up here
                A minorAm
Guess all the best things disappear


INSTRUMENTAL: G+G  A minorAm  (4x)


C majorC
Guess she thought she had nothing to lose
     G+G
When she told him he had to choose
A minorAm               C majorC
Nice idea, but they both knew

That she'd be leaving


Well, Jesus said, "Seek and you shall find"
G+G
He doesn't think it's true this time
A minorAm
Some things you look for, you never find
  C majorC
Like one good reason


CHORUS:
A minorAm             C majorC     FF
There's a line I've crossed somewhere
              A minorAm
I left the best of me back there
             C majorC   FF
Never thought I'd end up here
                A minorAm
Guess all the best things disappear
             C majorC   FF
Never thought I'd end up here
                A minorAm
Guess all the best things disappear
