(Verse 1)
[E]It was the perfect excuse to get drunk
As if [A]lately I've needed one
It was the [B]perfect excuse to buy bullets
For the [A]barrel of my [B]favorite [E]gun
It was the perfect way to [E7]show you
How it [A]feels inside of me
And the [B]perfect way to find out
How it [A]feels to [B]set me [E]free[A][B]
(Chorus)
[E]Reasons, I keep looking for [A]reasons
I [B]thought that I had loved you, I [A]did the [B]best I [E]could[A][B]
[E]Reasons, I keep looking for [A]reasons
I [Bb]lost the [B]reason for me living and [A]that just [B]ain't no [E]good [A] [B]
(Solo)
[E] [E] [D/A] [A] [B] [B] [E] [C#]
(Verse 2)
I [F#]know that three's a crowded room
[B] But really this won't take long
I want to [C#]meet the man, help him understand
What he [B]did when he [C#]broke up our [F#]home[B][C#]
And I'll be [F#]going now to a place I know
Thats [B]deep, dark and quiet
A-[C#]way from the pain and the undying shame
Of [B]me and my [C#]unfaithful [F#]wife[B][C#]
(Chorus)
[F#]Reasons, I keep looking for [B]reasons
I [C#]thought that I had loved you, I [B]did the [C#]best I [F#]could[B][C#]
[F#]Reasons, I keep looking for [B]reasons
I lost the [C#]reason for me living and [B]that just [C#]ain't no [F#]good
[B] I [C]lost the [C#]reason for me living and [B]that just [C#]ain't no [F#]good
[E]It was the perfect excuse to get drunk
As if [A]lately I've needed one
