The Offspring - I Choose: chords

         D             F          G
Look at me I'm fallin' off of a cliff now
        D                         F     G
I can still hear my mama yelling No No No
         D                   F                G
But the words mean nothing. Can't catch up to me now
     D                   F            G
The view is so beautiful all the way down

When I was a little boy sucking juice from a bottle
Believing my perceptions were oh so real
But I didn't know nothing, still, knowing nothing
Was just enough for me to know the way I feel

Chorus:
         D
This is life
        C          G       D
What a fucked up thing we do
        C    G          D
What a nightmare come true
       F        G       A# A          D
Or a playground if we choose, and I choose

Look at me, I'm swollen like a banana fish now
I'm never going to make it, make it out of my hole
But I keep on laughing, doesn't really matter
There's dozens of reasons for explaining my soul
When I was a teenager, sucking booze with the Vatos
Discussing who was gonna live to be twenty-one
They said they wouldn't make it; they didn't make it
We're all naked when the day is said and done

Chorus

A               C        G          D
Don't know who made this all come true
A                     C             G     A#                A
But now while you're here you just gotta do what you gotta do
1, 2, 3, 4

Now, if I wasn't such a weenie, do you think you'd still love me?
Pretending I'm an airplane on the living room floor
Like a lovely generator, you stand right by me
And if words were wisdom, I'd be talking even more

So I keep on falling as I'm looking back above me
Watching as my mama just becomes a little dot
Now I'm, I'm like DeNiro, I'm Amarillo
And I'll never know when I hit the ground

Chorus:
         D
This is life
        C          G       D
What a fucked up thing we do
        C    G          D
What a nightmare come true
       F        G      A# A    A# A    A# A
Or a playground if we choose, choose, choose,
        D
and I choose
