(Riff)
(Riff) (Riff) [Verse 1]
E5        G                A5 F5
Somewhere there's a reason

E5        G                A5 F5
Why things go like they do

E5        G                A5 F5
Somewhere there's a reason

E5        G                A5 F5
Why somethings just fall through

E5        G                A5 F5
We don't always see them

E5        G                A5 F5
For what they really are

E5        G                A5 F5
But I know there's a reason,

E5        G                A5 F5
Just can't see it from this far
[Pre-Chorus]
D5                     Bb5
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice

G5                     A5
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice

D5                     Bb5
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice

B5                     C5                    C#5
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
[Chorus]
E5                     C5
   I thought I knew it all

A5                        D5 Eb5 E5
   I thought I had it made

E5                       C5
   How could it end this way?

A5                  D5 Eb5
   I thought I knew
[Verse 2]
E5        G                A5 F5
Somewhere there's a reason

E5        G                A5 F5
Why things don't go my way

E5        G                A5 F5
Somewhere there's a reason

E5        G          A5 F5
That I cannot explain

E5        G                    A5 F5
Just like the change of season,

E5        G             A5 F5
Just may not be my turn

E5        G                 A5 F5
But I know there's a reason,

E5        G                A5 F5
The lesson's mine to learn
[Pre-Chorus]
D5                     Bb5
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice

G5                     A5
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice

D5                     Bb5
Maybe I don't like it, but I have no choice

B5                     C5                    C#5
I know that somewhere, someone hears my voice
[Chorus]
E5                     C5
   I thought I knew it all

A5                        D5 Eb5 E5

E5                       C5
