Subject: TAB: 'There Is A Reason' by 'Alison Krauss'

This is a really cool song written by Ron Block, and sung by Alison
Krauss on her album, "So Long, So Wrong"  It's pretty easy:


Intro:  (A)

Verse:

A         E          D                A
I've seen hard times and I've been told

D                                E
There isn't any wonder that I fall.

A         E       D                A
Why do we suffer, crossing off the years?

D               E             A
There must be a reason for it all.


Verse 2:

I've trusted in you Jesus, to save me from my sin
Heaven is the place I call my home.
But I keep on getting caught up in this world I'm living in
and your voice it sometimes fades before I know.







Fm                D             E              A
Hurtin' brings my heart to you, crying with my need

Fm                D             E
Depending on your love to carry me.

A                      E         D                A
The love that shed his blood for all the world to see

D                E             A
This must be the reason for it all.

(instrumental)

Hurtin' brings my heart to you, a fortress in the storm
When what I wrap my heart around is gone.
I give my heart so easily to the ruler of this world
When the one who loves me most will give me all.


Fm                     D                 E               A
In all the things that cause me pain you give me eyes to see

Fm               D       E
I do believe but help my unbelief.

A         E              D         A(stop)
I've seen hard times and I've been told

D          (stop)        A(stop)
There is a reason for it all.
