         Reason To Think Aloud





----------------------------
STANDARD TUNING   -  CAPO 2
----------------------------

Intro:   A (sus4)  F#m  C#m  Bm  E


               A 
C    it’s almost christmas 
             F#m     C#m
H    what do i do? 
          Bm       E
O    where do i go? 
          A  
R    i don’t want to be alone 

U              F#m         C#m
     for all i’ve said, 
S          Bm           E
     what do i know? 

A                        F#m
now that the tv’s gone, 
                   Bm            A
i can see why you placed it there 
                    F#m            
the weeks just keep rolling by, 
                Bm            A      
i still look to see the glare 


it’s easy to hold it back, 
easy to just move on 
convince yourself not to care, 
hope strength might come along 


     but it’s almost christmas, 
C    what do i do? 
H    where do i go? 
O
R    i don’t want to be alone 
U    for all i’ve said, 
S    what do i know? 


now that there’s snow outside, 
there’s reason to think aloud 
pride tends to eat me up, 
but pride doesn’t mean i’m proud 

I believe that there is more to this, 
believe that true love waits. 
i believe someone put me here, 
believe they might take me away
