I would like to say that it's great to be here, finally, in Viña del Mar, Chile.
Okay, is everything alright so far?
Alright, just checking.
Now, we're going to be doing all kinds of songs for you tonight.
We're going to be doing some new songs, we're going to be doing some old songs,
and we're going to be doing some songs that are sort of just in between.
So this next song, this is a new song, for me anyway, and it's called The Reason.
[D] And it goes like this.
I'm not a good [B] person.
[Bm]
There's many things I wish I [D] didn't do.
But I continue [Bm] learning.
I never meant to do those [G] things to you.
And so I have to say, [A] before I go,
that I just want you to [D] know
I found a reason [Bm] for me
to stay where I used [G] to be.
A reason to start all [A] over again.
And the reason [D] is you.
I'm sorry that I [Bm] hurt you.
It's something I must live with [D] every day.
And all the pain I [Bm] put you through.
I wish that I could take it [G] all away
and be the one who captures [A] all your tears.
That's why I need you [D] to hear
a reason [Bm] for me
to stay where I used [G] to be.
A reason to start [A] all over again.
And the [C] reason is you.
[G] [C] The reason [D] is you.
The reason [C] is [Am] you.
[C]
[G] [C] The reason [D] is you.
I'm not a perfect [Bm] person.
I never meant to do those [G] things to you.
And so I have to say, [A] before I go,
that I just want you [D] to know
a reason [Bm] for me
[B] to change who I [Bm] used [G] to be.
A reason to start [A] all over again.
And the reason [D] is you.
A reason to [Bm] show
a side of me you [G] didn't know.
A reason for all [A] that I do.
And the [D] reason is you.
[N]
