YOU'RE THE REASON I'M LIVIN'
Recorded by: Sonny James
Writer: Bobby Darin

CHORUS

[S: Strum] 
[S:B] You're The Reason I'm [E] Livin'
You're the breath that I [B] take
You're the stars in my [F#] heaven
You're the sun when I [B] wake
You're The Reason I'm [E] Livin'
You'll  carry me [B] thru
All of life's little [F#] burdens
I'd be lost without [B] you. [p]

[nc] A long, long [F#] time ago
When I was [B] down
You picked me [C#] up and showed me true love
Still could be [F#] found 
[B] You're the reason I [E] do things
You're the things that I [B] do
You're The Reason I'm [F#] Livin'
I'd be lost without [B] you.

CHANGE TO C:

CHORUS
[nc] You're The Reason I'm [F] Livin'
You're the breath that I [C] take
You're the stars in my [G] heaven
You're the sun when I [C] wake
You're The Reason I'm [F] Livin'
You'll  carry me [C] thru
All of life's little [G] burdens
I'd be lost without [C] you.
