[Intro]
G A Bm  x2


[Verse 1]
Bm
  Throughout our lives we are
always searching for something
G
  Sometimes it leads to nothing
   D
We try to find ourselves
         A    Bm
a better place Nothing we can
                     G
do to change the past Consider
dwell on all the times that
                     D
you came in last You can't move
       A
on you don't have to erase


[Refrain 1]
            G            D/F#
Why are you trying to pretend
             Bm
that you are something that
       A              G
you're not? No matter how
         D/F#    A
hard you try the memory
will be forgot


[Chorus 1]
Bm
  There's one life we are given
G
  Confess your sins and you're
        D
forgiven At least that's
                  A Bm
what they said to me  I cannot
fix what you say is not broken
G
  You hide the truth with
the words unspoken
D                              A
  This is the life I chose for me
                             G
This is the life I chose for me
            A                Bm
This is the life I chose for me


[Verse 2]
Bm
  You're always searching
for a better option
G
  Trying to make your mind
cannot be forgotten
    D
I'm tired of pretending
          A
that your past
I'm not remembering
Bm
  Trust me cause I'm always
      G
honest I've realize that
                 D
I'm better off ignoring
                       A
Your strategy your negativity
is such a tragedy!

[Bridge]
Bm    A       G
Don't pretend life is
             Bm
living in conformity
A                   G
I don't need your authority
Bm   A      G
Tell me I'm wrong but I'll
         Bm
be who I want to be
    A                G
I'm fine being the minority
