Bruce Springsteen - Reason to Believe: chords

F                                  A#
Seen a man standin' over a dead dog
                     F
by the highway in a ditch
F
He's lookin' down kinda puzzled
                         C
pokin' that dog with a stick
                        F
Got his car door flung open
      A#                      F
he's standin' out on Highway 31
                        A#     F
Like if he stood there long enough
C                      F
that dog'd get up and run
F                       A# F
Man it struck me kinda funny
            C            F
seem kinda funny sir to me
F                        A#    F
How at the end of every hard earned
            C                     F
day people find some reason to believe

Now, Mary Lou loved Johnny
With a love mean and true
She said, "Baby, I'll work for you every day"
And bring my money home to you
One day, he up and left her
And ever since that
She waits down at the end of that dirt road
For young Johnny to come back
Struck me kinda funny
Funny, yeah, indeed
How at the end of every hard-earned day
People find some reason to believe

Take a baby to the river
"Kyle William," they called him
Wash the baby in the water
Take away little Kyle's sin
In a whitewashed shotgun shack
An old man passes away
Take the body to the graveyard
Over him, they pray
Lord, won't you tell us
Tell us—what does it mean?
At the end of every hard-earned day
People find some reason to believe

Congregation gathers
Down by the riverside
Preacher stands with a bible
Groom stands waiting for his bride
Congregation gone and the sun sets
Behind a weeping willow tree
Groom stands alone and watches the river rush on
So effortlessly
Wondering
Where can his baby be
Still, at the end of every hard-earned day
People find some reason to believe
