It's a very bouncy song. 80 BPM (or 160 if you count every strum).
There's a beat skip at the end of every verse.
[Intro]
C
[Verse]
C
Let me say a simple something bout way back when, I know it now but I didn’t then
F C
I made some easy money and I spent some too, have no car but I used to have two
G
I had a bit of trouble with the local law and a summer sundress that made me fall
F G C
I've baked a lot of plans and before I knew, I tripped on love and fell into you
[Verse]
C
It’s been so long since I’ve been on my own, got enough friends to know I'm all alone
F C
Done a little good made a lot of mistakes, burned enough bridges to light my way
G
Lookin for a lover who understands the man I am, what I need.
F G C
A soulful southern city girl that loves for free, who tripped on love and fell into me
[Chorus]
F C
There’s no reason, no reason, no reason that we can’t flee
G C
Be as happy and healthy as happy and healthy can be
F C
There’s no reason, no reason, no reason that we can’t find
G C
That piece of mind that you find when you find a little piece of mind
[Verse]
C
I found me a woman that I think might fit, she likes my arms, I like her hips
F C
She knows how to treat me late at night, until we wake to the mornin light
G
Stable and sane you know she knows her way, how to dress, what to say
F G C
but when we get alone it's a different tune, how I tripped on love and fell into you.
[Chorus]
F C
There’s no reason, no reason, no reason that we can’t flee
G C
Be as happy and healthy as happy and healthy can be
F C
There’s no reason, no reason, no reason that we can’t find
G C
That piece of mind that you find when you find a little piece of mind
[Verse]
C
It took a lot of work but it always does, it's not the simple something that I thought it was
F C
But the search is over and the hunt is done, the flags are down, the race is won
G
So when you see my friends and I'm not around, you can tell them all about the love I've found
F G C
Cuz now you’ve heard, that's how I tripped on love and fell into her
