JUST BECAUSE (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
------------------------------------
[Actually in E; capo 4.  Tuning: EADGBD.]
[Note that the words aren't _exactly_ where they're supposed to be
 with respect to the rhythm.  But they're close.]

       1. Have you ever loved           someone you knew nothing of
       2. Have you ever tried         to speak the truth instead of lie
       3. Now I see the ones who've lost too much, they swear they're done

    except you'd seen the light inside their eyes
    when it seemed you had everything to lose
    with love and all the chance it brings for pain

          Have you ever loved               someone just because
          Have you ever tried        to stand your ground instead of hide
      But have you ever touched,     and by itself it was enough

      nothing felt so easy or so right                         And I
 when staying only made you look a fool                        And I
   to make you want to reach out once again                    And I'll

    think of you like the others do, wondering if you think of me
    stayed by you, though I think I knew it wouldn't change a thing
    touch you when I need a friend or just a small reminder

    And if you do, if you really do, who is it that you see
    Changes come to hearts with ease, but they come so hard to me
    that I haven't grown too cold to feel you penetrate my armor  [to coda]

 Have you ever loved someone just because            [go back, to verse 2]
