Intro: (D) (D) (G) (D)
I've had (D) choices,
Since the (G) day I was (D) born
There were voices,
That (Em) told me right from (A) wrong.
If I had (D) listened,
I (G) wouldn't be here today.
(D) Living and dieing,
With the (A) choices I've (D) made.
I was (A) tempted
By an (G) early age I (D) found
I liked (A) drinkin'
I (G) never turned it (D) down
There were loved ones
But I (G) turned them all away
Now I'm (D) living and dieing
With the (A) choices I've (D) made
I've had (D) choices,
Since the (G) day I was (D) born
There were voices,
That (Em) told me right from (A) wrong.
If I had (D) listened,
I (G) wouldn't be here today.
(D) Living and dieing,
With the (A) choices I've (D) made.
I guess I'm (A) paying
For the things (G) that I have (D) done
If I could go (A) back
(G) Lord knows I'd (D) run
But I'm still loosein'
This (G) game of life I play
(D) Living and dieing
With the (A) choices I've (D) made
I've had (D) choices,
Since the (G) day I was (D) born
There were voices,
That (Em) told me right from (A) wrong.
If I had (D) listened,
I (G) wouldn't be here today.
(D) Living and dieing,
With the (A) choices I've (D) made.
(D) Living and dieing,
With the (A) choices I've (D) made.
