D  D  G  D
I've had Dchoices,
Since the Gday I was Dborn
There were voices,
That Emtold me right from Awrong.
If I had Dlistened,
I Gwouldn't be here today.
DLiving and dieing,
With the Achoices I've Dmade.
I was Atempted
By an Gearly age I Dfound
I liked Adrinkin'
I Gnever turned it Ddown
There were loved ones
But I Gturned them all away
Now I'm Dliving and dieing
With the Achoices I've Dmade
I've had Dchoices,
Since the Gday I was Dborn
There were voices,
That Emtold me right from Awrong.
If I had Dlistened,
I Gwouldn't be here today.
DLiving and dieing,
With the Achoices I've Dmade.
I guess I'm Apaying
For the things Gthat I have Ddone
If I could go Aback
GLord knows I'd Drun
But I'm still loosein'
This Ggame of life I play
DLiving and dieing
With the Achoices I've Dmade
I've had Dchoices,
Since the Gday I was Dborn
There were voices,
That Emtold me right from Awrong.
If I had Dlistened,
I Gwouldn't be here today.
DLiving and dieing,
With the Achoices I've Dmade.
DLiving and dieing,
With the Achoices I've Dmade.

D D G D

I've had choices,

G D

Since the day I was born

There were voices,

Em A

That told me right from wrong.

If I had listened,

I wouldn't be here today.

Living and dieing,

A D

With the choices I've made.

I was tempted

G D

By an early age I found

I liked drinkin'

G D

I never turned it down

There were loved ones

But I turned them all away

Now I'm living and dieing

A D

With the choices I've made

I've had choices,

G D

Since the day I was born

There were voices,

Em A

That told me right from wrong.

If I had listened,

I wouldn't be here today.

Living and dieing,

A D

With the choices I've made.

I guess I'm paying

G D

For the things that I have done

If I could go back

G D

Lord knows I'd run

But I'm still loosein'

This game of life I play

Living and dieing

A D

With the choices I've made

I've had choices,

G D

Since the day I was born

There were voices,

Em A

That told me right from wrong.

If I had listened,

I wouldn't be here today.

Living and dieing,

A D

With the choices I've made.

Living and dieing,

A D

With the choices I've made.
