REASON I DRINK CHORDS PIANO AND GUITAR – Alanis Morissette

Dm F Dm Bb F

[Verse 1]

Dm                   F
These are the reasons I drink
               Bb                   C                   F   C
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am    not
 Dm                      F
These are the reasons I overdo it
              Bb                   C                        F        C
I have been   working since I can remember, since I was single digits
Dm                           F
Now, even though I've been busted
           Bb                    C                           F               Bb
I don't know where to draw the line 'cause that groove has gotten so deep

[Pre-Chorus]

C           Dm       Bb             F
And nothing can give reprieve like they do
    C        Dm      Bb
Nothing can give a break for this soldier like they do

[Chorus]

Dm        Bb
Here we are
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong oh oh oh oh
Dm         Bb
One more hit
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
It feels so helpful in my need for respite oh oh oh oh
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh

[Verse 2]

Dm                      F
And here are the reasons I eat
               Bb                   C                   F   C
Reasons I feel everything so deeply when I'm not medicated
 Dm                      F
And so that's it, I am buying a Lamborghini
               Bb                   C                   F    Bb
To make up for these habits, to survive this sick industry

[Pre-Chorus]

C           Dm       Bb             F
Nothing can give reprieve like they do
    C        Dm      Bb
Nothing can give me a break from this torture like they do

[Chorus]

Dm        Bb
Here we are
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong oh oh oh oh
Dm         Bb
One more sip
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
It feels so helpful in my need for some long overdue respite
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh

[Bridge]

Dm                 C          Bb                       F 
And these are the reasons I don't even think I would quit
Dm                 C          Bb                       F   
And these are the reasons I can't even see straight
Dm                 C          Bb                       F
And these are the ones whom I know it so deeply affects
               Bb                C
And I am left wondering how I would function without it

[Outro]

Dm        Bb
Here we are
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong oh oh oh oh
Dm        Bb
One more rip
F              C           Dm              Bb       F     C
I go from one lilipad to another to stay lit
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh
       Dm   Bb   F    C
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh
       Dm   Bb   F
Ohoh - oh - oh - oh
