I Choose

D
Because you never know where life is
 gonna take you
         D
And you can't change where you've 
been
      D
But today, I have the opportunity to
 choose


[Verse 1]
Bm
Here am I now looking at 30 and I 
got so much to say
Bm
I gotta get this off of my chest, I 
gotta let it go today
Bm                             
I was always too concerned about 
    E
what everybody would think
Bm
But I can't live for everybody, I 
gotta live my life for me.(Yeah)   G
Bm
I pitched a fork in the road of my 
life
And ain't nothing gonna happen 
   B
unless I decide


[Chorus]
         E                         
(And I choose) to be the best that I
A
 can be
     D                       
(I choose) to be authentic in 
        E
everything I do
                A           D
My past don't dictate who I am
     A
I choose. (Yeah)


[Verse 2]
Bm                         A
I done been through some painful 
things
               E
I thought that I would never make it

Bm
Filled up with shame from the top of
 my head
E
To the soles of my shoes
Bm                   A    E
I put myself in so many chaotic 
circumstances
B
But by the grace of God I've been 
given so many second chances
Bm
But today I decided to let it all go
Bm
I'm dropping these bags, I'm making 
room for my joy


[Chorus:]
          E                        
(And I choose) to be the best that I
A
 can be
      D                      
(I choose) to be authentic in 
        B
everything I do     E
               A            E
My past don't dictate who I am
     B
I choose


[Post Chorus]
 E
Because you never know where life is
 gonna take you
          A
And you can't change where you've 
been
      D                Bm
But today, I have the opportunity to
 choose. (Hey ey)   B
E
Released the guilt about why things 
happen the way they do

Cos life is gone do what it do
       A
And everyday, I have the opportunity
 to choose     D


[Brigde]
B                                 
From this day forward I'm going to
      G
 be exactly who I am
B                                 
I don't need to change the way 
       E
that I live just to get a man. (NO!)
Bm       A                       
I even had a talk with my mama 
     E
and I told her the day I'm grown
B
"From this day forward, every 
decision I make will be my own." And
 hey!


[Chorus]
        E                          
(And I choose) to be the best that I
A
 can be
       D                      
(I choose) to be courageous in 
       B
everything I do     E
               Em      A    Bm   
My past don't dictate who I am. I
    B
 choose
         E                         
(And I choose) to be the best that I
G
 can be
     Em                      
(I choose) to be authentic in 
   A
everything I do     E
                G            D    
My past don't dictate who I am. I 
   E
choose
