If You Need A Reason
An Introduction: Sorry in advance. It's my first tab that I've submitted here, and I
most of my songs by ear. I also was outraged that they didn't already have this song on
Guitar, since it's one of Jennings' best, in my opinion.
Basically, this song is a bunch of simple bar chords (the same ones over again), and
I don't know the names of most of them, I'll just show them in tab form:
Chord 1: (4th fret bar
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
e:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
B:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
G:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
D:
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
A:
---I---I---I---I---I---I
E:
Chord 2: (4th fret bar
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
e:
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
B:
---I---I---I---I-X-I---I
G:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
D:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
A:
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
E:
Chord 3: (2nd fret bar
---I-X-I---I---I---I---I
e:
---I-X-I---I---I---I---I

D:
---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
A:
---I-X-I---I---I---I---I
E:
Chord 4: (6th fret bar
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
e:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
B:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
G:
---I---I---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
D:
---I---I---I---I---I---I---I-X-I
A:
---I---I---I---I---I-X-I---I---I
E:
And to make it easier on both of us, the numbered chords are shown with the lyrics:

I hope I helped. Sorry again about the shabby "tabbed" chords. But again, I learn by ear
have no idea what most bar chords are.
Cheers!
