Just Because by   Jim Kenyon





Verse 1


.




[D]you always pick me [A]up when I'm [Bm]feeling down


And you [G]free my soul every[D] time I hear you [A] laughing


and those[D] little things you [A] do can fix [Bm] any mood I'm in


you’re like [G]sunshine shining warmly [D] beneath my [A]skin




verse 2


.




[D]You always chose to [A] stay when most [Bm] would walk away


And you [G] pretend I make you [D] happy even when [A] I don't


And time [D]keeps on rolling [A] the years have [Bm] gone by so fast


you know [G] you weren’t my first love but [D]you’ll always be my[A] last


.


.


Chorus


[D]You’re always asking me [A] why I love you,


but I [Em]can only smile and say it’s [D]just because


oh,[D]just when I think it can’t get [A]any better than this,


it seems [Em] you always seem to find a way it [D] does



yeah, [A]you always seem to [G] find a way it [D] does


.


verse 3


.




[D]Even when we’re [A]apart, you're always [Bm] on my mind


It’s like [G] I can hear your voice [D]floating in the [A] breeze


You’re in [D] every moment [A] tucked deep [Bm] inside my heart


Like a [G] melody that plays [D]and carries me through [A]the dark


.


Chorus


[D]You’re always asking me [A] why I love you,


but I [Em]can only smile and say it’s [D]just because


oh,[D]just when I think it can’t get [A]any better than this,


it seems [Em] you always seem to find a way it [D] does


yeah, [A]you always seem to [G] find a way it [D] does


.




sing a cappella


yeah...just when I think it can’t get any better than this,


you always find a way that it does


and if you ask me why I love you, well, it’s just because





The price of anything, is the amount of life you exchange for it.   - H.D. Thoreau
Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.
"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke
