Broken From The Start Chords

(ver. 1)
Jon Foreman
[Intro]
B5
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 1]
B5        D5                    Asus2
Life is a gift like fresh cut roses
B5           D5                   Asus2
Cut from the branch and brought inside
         G            D5/A          G           D5/A
It's a slow contradiction, it's beauty in a vase
         G                    Asus4            B5
When our cords are cut that's when we start to die   (oh)
B5        D5                    Asus2
Lately death and life get so confusing
B5        D5                    Asus2
I can't tell the difference here tonight
         G            D5/A          G
Lately every breath feels like I'm kissing death
         G                    Asus4            B5
And when time is dead I cease to be alive

[Chorus]:
G        A           D5/A    G
If you hide yourself deep inside
D5/A    G
Deep inside
Em    A             D5/A            G
In time you've got nothing left to hide
D5/A                    G
There's nothing left inside
Em    A
Tonight, honey
Am                   G
I'm gonna break your heart
Em        A               G
Mine was broken from the start
A                B5
Broken from the start    (Oh)

[Verse 2]
B5        D5                    Asus2
Choice is the only thing we're given
B5           D5                   Asus2
For one to live another dies
G            D5
One road says, "Hello"
G            D5
The other says, "Goodbye"
         G                    Asus4            B5
And the rose that you don't choose begin to die (Oh, oh)

[Chorus 2]
G        A           D5/A    G
If you hide yourself deep inside
D5/A    G
Deep inside
Em    A             D5/A            G
In time you've got nothing left to hide
D5/A                    G
There's nothing left inside
Em    A
Tonight, honey
Am                   G
I'm gonna break your heart
Em        A               G
Mine was broken from the start
A               G
Broken from the start
A               G
Broken from the start
A               B5
Broken from the start

[Verse 3]
B5        D5                    Asus2
They won't pay a cent to hear you laughing
B5        D5                    Asus2
They might pay a little to hear you cry
G            D5
If you do it long enough
F#m                 Bm
They might even pay attention
         G                    Asus4            B5
But they still won't pay respect until you die, die

[Chorus 3]
G        A           D5/A    G
If you hide yourself deep inside
D5/A    G
Deep inside
Em    A             D5/A            G
In time you've got nothing left to hide
D5/A                    G
There's nothing left inside
Em    A
Tonight, honey
Am                   G
I'm gonna break your heart
Em        A               G
Mine was broken from the start
A                B5
Broken from the start
