Tom : F
F C
I found a place where the weekend's long
G Dm
Don't check no luggage just carry on
C
Why should you laugh instead of cry
Why should you live instead of die
Dm
I'll be your reason
Dm C
It's okay go on and give me a try C
Walk with your head way up above the sky
Dm
I'll be your reason yeah
Dm C
Don't be afraid for what is to come
It's been too long since that bell was rung
Dm
Ooh yeah I'll be the reason
Dm C
Why you should even have a little faith
Why you should grow and cultivate
Dm
I'll be your reason yeah
[Chorus]
F C
I found a place where the weekend's long (found a place)

[Bridge]
C
Say come on it couldn't be a sin
Maybe your god could see the heart of things

You think you lost but you just found your way

Ooh yeah I'll be your reason
Come on now

Pick you up at four four five
Keeping hope and dream alive

Ooh yes I'll be your reason yeah
