Life We Chose by Jared & the Mill
Life We Chose
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
Em G Cadd9
[Verse 1]
Em G Cadd9
Hourglass inside of my bones
Em G Cadd9
Trapped inside a picture frame above your throat
Em G Cadd9
You were someone else when I was too
Em G Cadd9
Weren't we someone else, wasn't I?
N.C.
Weren't you?
[Instrumental]
Em G Cadd9
[Verse 2]
Em G Cadd9
But giving up is harder said than done
Em G
Throwing stones, set love on fire
Cadd9
We thought we'd won
Em G Cadd9
I thought I was the man that you thought I was too
Em
But he went away
G Cadd9
He ran away with that girl I thought was you
[Chorus]
C G D
But we both know this is the life we chose
C G D
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
C G
Will wither down and run out of time
D Em
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
C G D
We both know this is the life that we chose
[Verse 3]
Em G Cadd9
So teary-eyed and desperate we manifest
Em G Cadd9
Into a creature brought on by fear of a destiny we dread
Em G Cadd9
Our four walls come down but somehow the roof suspends
Em G Cadd9
It changed to a cloud, and down comes the rain as we near the end
[Chorus]
C G D Dsus4 D
But we both know this is the life we chose
C G D Dsus4 D
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
C G
Will wither down and run out of time
D Em
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
C G D
We both know this is the life that we chose
[Verse 4]
Em G Cadd9
But comin' back from a hit like that's a chore
Em G Cadd9
When we were trapped inside of a jail cell we both adore
Em G Cadd9
My head's a mess, I swear it's like a loaded gun
Em G
Set to explode at a flick of your soul
Cadd9
I'm an awful mess and you said that you're done
[Chorus]
C G D Dsus4 D
But we both know this is the life we chose
C G D Dsus4 D
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
C G
Will wither down and run out of time
D Em
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
C G D Dsus4 D
We both know this is the life that we chose
C G D
We both know this is the life that we chose
[Bridge]
G
There's a dark cloud over a love I have
C G
There's a rain upon my hair
G
So wet on top of my head, my Lord
C D
Let the sun come out instead
G
To the east I see the sunrise
C G
But the west sunset still falls
G
There's a dark cloud over a love I have
C G
And it can only last so long
G
There's a land of gold where my eyes are set
C G
There's a land of gold I see
G
Where the streams of water flow into the land
C D
Where the grass is always green
G
To the east I see the sunrise
C G
But the west sunset still falls
G
There's a dark cloud over a love I have
C G
But it can only last so long
[Chorus]
C G D Dsus4 D
But we both know this is the life we chose
C G D Dsus4 D
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
C G
Will wither down and run out of time
D Em
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
C G D Dsus4 D
We both know this is the life that we chose
C G D
We both know this is the life that we chose
C G D
God, I hope this is the life that I chose

Hourglass inside of my bones
Trapped inside a picture frame above your throat
You were someone else when I was too
Weren't we someone else, wasn't I?
Weren't you?
But giving up is harder said than done
Throwing stones, set love on fire, we thought we'd won
I thought I was the man that you thought I was too
But he went away
He ran away with the girl I thought was you
But we both know this is the life we chose
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
Will wither down and run out of time
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
We both know this is the life that we chose
So teary-eyed and desperate we manifest
Into a creature brought on by fear of a destiny we dread
Our four walls come down but somehow the roof suspends
It changed to a cloud, and down comes the rain as we near the end
But we both know this is the life that we chose
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
Will wither down and run out of time
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
We both know this is the life that we chose
But comin' back from a hit like that's a chore
When we were trapped inside of a jail cell we both adore
My hands are a mess, I swear it's like a loaded gun
Set to explode at a flick of your soul
I'm an awful mess and you said that you'd run
But we both know this is the life that we chose
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
Will wither down and run out of time
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
We both know this is the life that we chose
We both know this is the life that we chose
There's a dark cloud over a love I have
There's a rain upon my hair
So wet on top of my head, my lord
Let the sun come out instead
To the east I see the sunrise

There's a dark cloud over a love I have
And it can only last so long
There's a land of gold where my eyes are set

We both know this is the life that we chose
We both know that the hourglass inside my bones
Will wither down and run out of time
We'll try to mend it but we'll end up dying
We both know this is the life that we chose
We both know this is the life that we chose
God, I hope this is the life that I chose
