[Verse 1 - Drums in] There's a [E] reason, for the sunshine in the sky And there's a reason why I'm feeling so high Must be the [B] season, when that love light shines, all a[E] round us. [E][E][E][A] So let that [E] feeling, grab you deep inside And send you reeling, where your love can't hide And then go [B] stealing, through the moonlit nights, with your [E] lover. [E7]
[Chorus] Just let your [A] love flow, like a mountain stream And let your [E] love grow, with the smallest of dreams And let your [B] love show, and you'll know what I mean, it's the [E] season. [E7]
Let your [A] love fly like a bird on the wing, and let your [E] love bind you to all living things And let your [B] love shine, and you'll know what I mean, that's the [E] reason. [Esus4] (just bass drum and E to Esus4 x 2)
[Verse 2] There's a [E] reason, for the warm sweet nights And there's a reason, for the candle lights Must be the [B] season, when those love lights shine, all [E] around us. [E][E][E][A] So let that [E] wonder, take you into space And lay you under, its loving embrace Just feel the [B] thunder, as it warms your face, you can't [E] hold back.[E7]
[Chorus] Just let your [A] love flow, like a mountain stream And let your [E] love grow, with the smallest of dreams And let your [B] love show, and you'll know what I mean, it's the [E] season. [E7]
Let your [A] love fly like a bird on the wing, and let your [E] love bind you to all living things And let your [B] love shine, and you'll know what I mean, that's the [E] reason. [Esus4] (just bass drum and E to Esus4 x 2)
Just let your [A] love flow, like a mountain stream And let your [E] love grow, with the smallest of dreams And let your [B] love show, and you'll know what I mean, it's the [E] season. [E7]
