      Judy Collins - I Choose Love


CAPO: 4th Fret



[Intro]
C G    C F    C G    C

[Verse 1]
                        G
Every day we're given
                       C
Another chance to be
                           G
Someone good for someone

To give your heart for free
  Am
A chance to either fall below
   F                   G
Or better rise above
         C     G
I choose love
         C
I choose love


[Verse 2]
                             G
We've been known to bicker
                             C
We've been prone to scream
                           G
Going at each other till we

Fizzle out of steam
Am
Aren't you tired of dishing out
    F                        G
The pushes and the shoves?
         C     G
I choose love
         C
I choose love


[Bridge]
   F
We hide from pain, we criticize
   Am
We veil the truth, we patronize
   F                                 Am
To help ourselves traverse the bumpy ride
  F
Beholden to our wary minds
   Am
We go great lengths to be unkind
     F                               Am   G   F    C G  C
We'd rather circumvent than walk the line______


[Verse 3]
                             G
I haven't done much giving
                       C
Thought mostly of me
                        G
Didn't want to notice

What isn't hard to see
       Am
What's easiest to actualise
    F                   G
And rarely spoken of
          C     G
To choose love
           C
To choose love


[Outro]
  Am
A chance to either fall below
   F                   G
Or better rise above
         C     G
I choose love
         C     G
I choose love
         C     G
I choose love
         C
I choose love
