Topic: Reasons Why

Just a little introspective thinking that kind of ties in with what I've been doing: planning my goals for the next year, self assessment performance reviews for the past year, and song writing that never seems to stop no matter what time of year. I hope you all like it.

Re: Reasons Why

Hi Jeff,

Another thought provoking song but inward thinking this time. Good lyrics and chords and hey no barre chords, so easy to play.

Well done,

Roger
