The Reason chords by Lacey Sturm

Chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Intermediate


Tuning:
I find it easiest played half a step down, so tune to Eb MajorEb standard, and then
transpose this up a half step. If not, then play this in standard tuning.

Intro:
F minorFm C#C# D#D#  x2


Verse 1:
F minorFm   C#C#     D#D#
All my life I've searched for something
F minorFm       C#C#      D#D#
To satisfy the longing in my heart
F minorFm    C#C#    D#D#
But every time I've come away
F minorFm  C#C#    D#D#   (D#D#)
Emptier than before

Chorus:
(D#D#)    F minorFm   C#C#    D#D#
And now I finally see the reason
     F minorFm     C#C#  D#D#
Cuz I was made to be yours alone
       C#C#     G#G#    D#D#
You formed my heart with your own hands
      C#C#    G#G#  D#D#
But I just could not understand
  C#C#      G#G#     D#D#
If I gave you my life I'd be healed by your grace
   C#C#      G#G#      D#D#
I was made for your love and gave others your place

Verse 2:
F minorFm     C#C#   D#D#
I spent my days giving my heart away
  F minorFm C#C#  D#D#
To a---nything new
F minorFm   C#C#    D#D#
Only to ache from the poison
   F minorFm  C#C#  D#D#   (D#D#)
Of my temporary muse

F minorFm    C#C#    D#D#
There were times I cried myself
  F minorFm C#C#  D#D#
To sleep at night
F minorFm C#C#  D#D#
On..ly to wake up
F minorFm  C#C#    D#D#   (D#D#)
Wishing that I didn't

Chorus:
(D#D#)    F minorFm   C#C#    D#D#
And now I finally see the reason
     F minorFm     C#C#  D#D#
Cuz I was made to be yours alone
       C#C#     G#G#    D#D#
You formed my heart with your own hands
      C#C#    G#G#  D#D#
But I just could not understand
   C#C#     G#G#     D#D#
If I gave you my life I'd be healed by your grace
   C#C#      G#G#      D#D#
I was made for your love and gave others your place

Bridge:
F minorFm      C#C#      D#D#
Thank you for never giving up on me
    F minorFm          C#C#    D#D#
When I looked to everything else and lived so selfishly
  F minorFm    C#C#   D#D#
You bled you died to be with me
(D#D#)     F minorFm        C#C#        D#D#
Why would you do something like that for someone like me

       C#C#     G#G#    D#D#
You formed my heart with your own hands
     C#C#   G#G#  D#D#
And now I finally understand
   C#C#     G#G#      D#D#
And I gave you my life and I'm healed by your grace
   C#C#      G#G#      D#D#
I was made for your love that no one can replace
    C#C#     G#G#    D#D#       C#C#
This is it, I won't miss everything I am made for
