   applying moisturizer in the microwave window
D              Bm                  A
   for the tenth time, he should've called me an hour ago
D              Bm                  A
   would he be here with flowers if i lived in arizona?

D              Bm                  A
   they say there's no love left in the big cities, it's kinda true
D              Bm                  A
   i guess you'll find me coming soon to a small town near you
D              Bm                  A
   i'll sell my guitar so i can by myself a tractor
D (fingerpick) then A quick G D A

Pre-Chorus – Bar Chords

Bm              F#m
fuck this, this can't be my life
G               A
i moisturized ten times tonight
Bm              F#m
why can't i sit down and write,
G               A
bring this question to light?


Chorus

D               Bm       A             G
do you want a lover, or do you want a life?
D                Bm          A            G
one hand or the other, the butter or the bread knife?
D               Bm               A         G
do you choose winter, spring, summer, or fall?

D        Bm         G(hold)
it's driving me crazy that i can't have it all

Verse

D Bm A (fingerpicked) – 2x

D                Bm                    A
   if these walls could talk, they'd probably cry out for mercy
D                Bm                    A
   'til i'm outlined in chalk, i'll be romantically thirsty
D                Bm                    A
   so i drink and drink from the proverbial time sink

D (fingerpicked) G D A

Pre-Chorus – Bar Chords

Bm           F#m
fuck this, this can't be my life
G             A
tears flowing in full force tonight
Bm           F#m
why can't i sit down and write,
G             A
bring this question to light?

Chorus

D               Bm       A             G
do you want a lover, or do you want a life?
D                Bm          A            G
one hand or the other, the butter or the bread knife?
D               Bm               A         G
do you choose winter, spring, summer, or fall?
D        Bm         G(hold)
it's driving me crazy that i can't have it all

Bridge

D  Bm  A  G – 2x

D               Bm          A               G
do we hold the future, or does it come in peace?
D                                 Bm                    A
and if it's in my hands, are you sure it should be in brittle hands
      G
like these?
D                Bm             A         G
life, love, and the pursuit of all the things they promised me
D                Bm                  A              G 
can i have all of the above? are the best things in life truly free?

D Bm A G – 2x

Chorus

D               Bm       A             G
do you want a lover, or do you want a life?
D                Bm          A            G
one hand or the other, the butter or the bread knife?
D               Bm               A         G
do you choose winter, spring, summer, or fall?

D        Bm         G(hold)
it's driving me crazy that i can't have it all
