                    F                     G                    C

She said the pain is in the struggle to stay alive

      F                  G               C

A fight without breathing to survive

                    F       G       C

It seems too easy just to let go

                    F                    G                     C

She said the pain is in the struggle to stay alive

F            G             Am             F

In the darkness she found peace inside

F            G             Am             F

In the sunlight she felt love shine

F                     G

Heaven is letting go

                            C

And hell is staying alive

F G

             F             G                   C

As her life faded away she was saved

   F                G                         C

Strong arms pulled her from the waves

              F               G          C

She had more left to do in this life

                   F               G             C

With opened eyes it was time to be brave

CHORUS

Dm                       Em

Ain't it funny how quickly things can change

F                      G

Even when all else stays the same

Dm                          Em

Have you ever cried so hard you can't breathe

F                                 G

She'll wipe away these tears on her sleeve

                           F          G        Am    F

Tears on her sleeve                 Oh

CHORUS

chords & lyrics for "You Choose" - wrote this for a friend of mine a few years back..

YOU CHOOSE

Original music and lyrics by Elle Carpenter (UNRELEASED)

F D F D F D F D

So I thought that you had my back

You said “relax, I’ll help you out

Give me a shout if you’re stuck girl,

Without a doubt I’ll be here for you”

Well you can’t be a friend to someone if you don’t love yourself

You just keep hurting yourself

G                      Em             D

And you try to be an example

G                      Em             D

And you love to see people notice you

G                      Em             D                         C

And you try to love but you’re head is your enemy

         G               D

You choose to lose

In the fall when the leaves will change

I can think that you’ve been strange

Wonder about what you’d say love

Do you remember that hearts exist?

Well you can’t be a friend to someone if you don’t love yourself

You’ll just keep hurting yourself

When you try to be an example

And you love to see people notice you

And you try to love but you’re stuck in your memory

You choose to lose

C                                                                      G

You’ll get the things you want if you just sit still

C                                                                        G

I’ll give as much as I can; said I would ‘till the end

                C                                D

But don’t break my heart with self-abuse

When you’re trying to be an example

And you love to see people notice you

And you’re trying to love but you’re stuck in your memory

You choose to lose

And you try to be an example

And you love to see people notice you

And you try to love but you’re head is your enemy

You choose to lose
