[Verse 1]
C     D                 G        C
 Is this the life you chose yourself
               D
Or just how it ended up?
C     D                G         C
 Is that the yard you pictured when
                     D
You closed your eyes and dreamed
     C               D              G           C
Of children in the grass running through the sprinklers?
                    D
Being somebody's wife?
C             D          G      C     D
 Or were you living in another life?


[Chorus]
Am            C
 When will I make it home?
  Em              D
When I damn well feel like driving
Am          C
 Down these empty streets
      Em               Dsus4      D
That burn through our birthright
   G                  D            C              D      Em
I passed a couple of kids holding hands in the street tonight
  G            D    C       D
They reminded me of us in another life

[Verse 2]
C   D             G      C
 Am I the man of your desire?
                    D
Or just a guy from your hometown?
C      D                  G            C
 Are these the arms that you saw when you
              D
Pictured yourself wrapped around?
 N.C.
Baby, I can vouch for the hopeless dreamer
Cadd9                C   D              G         C    D
 When you look at me, am I the man you hoped I'd be?


[Chorus]
Am         C
 When will I make it home?
  Em              D
When that jukebox in the corner
Am              C                 Em                   Dsus4    D
 Stops playing country songs of stories that sound like mine


[Outro]
    G            D            C           D       Em
I spent my best years laying rubber on a factory line
   G             D           C     D          C   D   G   C
I wonder what I would've been in another life
D                C   D   G   C
 In another life
D                C   D   G   C
 In another life
D                C   D   G   C
 In another life
