Arin North - Up To Him Chords

[Intro]
C       Em      F   C   Am  G
 
[Verse]
           C
If it were up to him he'd wander out
       Em
To the old strip mine behind his house
F               C
Lay down in the snow
    Am               G
And wake up with his wife
 
           C
If it were up to us he'd pass in his sleep
   Em
We all agree though we'd never speak
F                       C
About it, afraid of the words
           Am                G
As if they hold the power of life
 
[Chorus]
         F         C
But it's not up to us
    Am           G
The die was cast long ago
        F                C
There's nothing left for us
       Am
But to let
Go
 
[Verse]
    C
The first time that I ever saw
   Em
My father drink was when his father's
F             C
Age became so clear
   Am                 G
It couldn't be waved away
 
              C
And all these winter thoughts are dark and cold
     Em
They break our hearts, make us feel old
      F                  C
So we laugh a little too loud
    Am               G
And force the smiles on our faces
 
[Chorus]
         F         C
But it's not up to us
    Am           G
The die was cast long ago
        F                C
There's nothing left for us
       Am
But to let
 G
 Go
 
[Interlude]
F   C   Am   G
F   C
 
[Bridge]
    Em             F
The call came on a summer morning
  C
I boarded a plane that afternoon
   Em           F
We all knew the day was coming
            C
But there's never a time
       G
That's not too soon
 
[Verse]
           C
We spent a week in august cleaning house
  Em
A lifetime's relics carried out
       F               C
Till a corkboard and a keg
     Am           G
Were all that remained
 
              C
But still the air is thick with memories
     Em
They gather here like autumn leaves
        F                     C
All the good times around the bar
        Am                              G
All the friends that passed through and left their mark
 
[Chorus]
         F         C
And it's all up to us
    Am           G
The die was cast long ago
        F                C
There's nothing left for us
                Am
But to hold the memories
G
When we go
 
         F         C
And it's all up to us
    Am           G
The die was cast long ago
        F                C
There's nothing left for us
                 Am
But to share the memories
G
When we go
 
[Outro]
C       Em       F   C   Am  G
                         Ohhhhh
 
F   C   Am   G   F   C   Am  G
