Hoobastank - The reason

♪ Capo on the 2ND fret.


Intro:

E

E                 C#m
I'm not a perfect person
                               E
As many things I wish I didn't do
               C#m
But I continue learning
                                   A
I never meant to do those things to you
                              B
And so I have to say before I go
                          E
That I just want you to know

[CHORUS]
                       C#m
I've found a reason for me
                        A
To change who I used to be
                        B
A reason to start over new
                   E
and the reason is you

E

                  C#m
I'm sorry that I hurt you
                                      E
It's something I must live with everyday
                           C#m
And all the pain I put you through
                                  A
I wish that I could take it all away
                                     B
And be the one who catches all your tears
                          E
That's why I need you to hear

[CHORUS]      
                       C#m
I've found a reason for me
                        A
To change who I used to be
                        B
A reason to start over new
                   E
and the reason is You [x4]

E                    C#m  
I'm not a perfect person
E                                   A
I never meant to do those things to you
                               B
And so I have to say before I go
                         E
That I just want you to know

[CHORUS]

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
