Jackie Greene - Reasons To Be Free Chords & Tabs

Reasons to Be Free
by Jackie Greene
standard tuning, no capo

The strumming is a little difficult, so listen closely to the recording. I didn't type 
in, but some of the "D"s switch quickly to "Dsus4" (xx0233) and back, and the "Am"s in 
pre-chorus switch to "Asus2" (002200) and back.

C          G
Cry, cry, mud in your eye
D                             Am
Oh, you’re going through the reasons why
C                  G
Doing anything to justify
D
How it got this way
C                  G
Diamond necklace, diamond rings
D            Am
Oh, how much more it stings
C                G
Watching you collect your things
     D
And what you want to say

         Am            Em D
Ought to say, ought to say
        Am           C D
And you say, and you say

     G        D      Am
That I don’t owe you nothing
   C
I never could tell that you
G          D      Am
You don’t need my loving
      C
Just get it from someone else
G       D      Em    D      C       
C
I just want a reason to be free from you
      G
Yes I do

C                   G
Too much time, and too much wine
D                   Am
Cut a hole in this heart of mine
C                         G
But I’ll lie and say I’m feeling fine
D
Sleepin’ in my clothes
    C                 G
I could be right, I could be wrong
D                   Am
To think about you while I’m gone
C                G
Love writes the saddest songs
      D
And that’s just how it goes

        Am          Em D
Yes it goes, yes it goes
        Am          C D
And it goes, yes it goes

    G        D      Am
Now I don’t owe you nothing
   C
I never could tell that you
G          D      Am
You don’t need my loving
      C
Just get it from someone else
G       D      Em    D      C        
C
I just want a reason to be free from you
      G

C                     G
Now all this pain I can’t explain
            D                          Am
It’s like running out of cover in the pouring rain
           C             G
It’s like waving goodbye to a train
        D
That’s moving down the track
C                        G
And all I know when the day is done
D                   Am
You can’t love just anyone
C                 G
It don’t matter where they’re going
              D
Or if they’re ever coming back

        Am          Em D
Coming back, coming back
        Am                     C D
Coming back, they ain’t coming back

    G        D      Am
But I don’t owe you nothing
   C
I never could tell that you
G          D       Am
You don’t need my loving
      C
Just get it from someone else

C
I just want a reason to be free from you
