Tom: Gm Gm Bb F Dm Am Gm Been a child in my life, a child in my dreams C It seemed forever Bb F That I'd get ahold of myself in between Dm Am Gm Nothin' for certain at least it seemed so anyway C And I was wondering Bb F F4 F What I would become or what may Bb F F4 F Music was my life, finally took everything Bb F Ain't it funny how you got it all and not a thing Gm Bb (It's a gift I can sing) Chorus: F Bb F Bb I've got a reason for living each day F Bb F Bb I've got a reason for makin' it pay F Bb F Bb If it's only for a moment and only my way F Bb F Bb F Gm Bb F I've got a reason, a time and a season I was takin' it for granted a little more than I should I had it easy, ummm , Was life ever doing me good I had it all written, how the story would end But I ran out of pages and I was left all alone with the pen The story's still got a line and the song'll still rhyme The names are the same, they're yours and they're mine (I guess I knew it all the time) Chorus
