[Chords] C/G 332010 D/A 554030 [Intro] C/G Em D/A x2 [Verse]

C/G
How can you just walk out on me

Em         D/A       
Without a trace?

C/G
I don't hear the sound of your voice

Em               D/A 
I can't see your face

C/G
On one side of the coin, there's a cure

Em                         D/A 
But on the other there's a curse

C/G
Well, I'm living in the larger world now

Em                 D/A 
Where work brings worth

[Chorus]

        C/G       D/A       Em
To the things we choose to care about

    C/G     D/A   Em
So, what is life like for me now?

C/G           D/A         Em
No more easy victories of youth

          C/G       D/A      Em 
Just the things we choose to care about

[Interlude] C/G Em D/A x2 [Verse]

C/G                            
I know that I have more than

Em          D/A 
I will ever need

C/G  
But I've learned that it does nothing to stop

Em                  D/A
The reocurrence of greed

C/G
And there ain't enough whiskey in this world

Em                  D/A
To ease a tormented mind

C/G
So, I'm longing for that place in my dreams

Em                 D/A
Where light brings life

[Chorus]

        C/G       D/A       Em
To the things we choose to care about

    C/G     D/A   Em
So, what is life like for me now?

C/G           D/A          Em
No more easy victories of youth

          C/G       D/A       Em 
Just the things we choose to care about

[Bridge]

Bm
Your memory

C/G
It will remain

Em           D/A
Always and forever

Bm
As winter fades

C/G
What still remains

Em       D/A
Always

[Chorus]

        C/G       D/A       Em
To the things we choose to care about

    C/G     D/A   Em
So, what is life like for me now?

C/G           D/A         Em
No more easy victories of youth

          C/G       D/A      Em 
Just the things we choose to care about
