This is by no means a definitive chord sheet or anything or even exactly how Jon might
but this is how I play it and I think it's pretty accurate.
[B5](Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Verse 1
[B5]Life is a [D5]gift like fresh cut ro[Asus2]ses
[B5]Cut from the [D5]branch and brought in[Asus2]side
It's a sl[G]ow contradict[D5/A]ion, it's beau[G]ty in a vase[D5/A]
When our [G]cords are cut that's [Asus4]when we start to [B5]die (oh)
Lately death and life get so confusing
I can't tell the difference here tonight
Lately every breath feels like I'm kissing death
And when time is dead I cease to be alive
Chorus:
[G]If you hi[A]de yourself [D5/A]deep ins[G]ide
[D5/A]Deep ins[G]ide
[G]In ti[A]me you've got [D5/A]nothing left to [G]hide
[D5/A]There's nothing left ins[G]ide
[G]Tonig[A]ht, honey
[Am]I'm gonna break your [G]heart
[G]Mine was [A]broken from the [G]start
[A]Broken from the s[B5]tart (Oh)
Verse 2 (Same as Verse 1)
Choice is the only thing we're given
For one to live another dies
One road says, "Hello"
The other says, "Goodbye"
And the rose that you don't choose begin to die (Oh, oh)
Chorus 2 (Same as Chorus 1 except where noted)
If you hide yourself deep inside
Deep inside
In time you've got nothing left to hide
It dries up inside
Tonight, honey
I'm gonna break your heart
Mine was broken from the start
[A]Broken from the [G]start
[A]Broken from the [G]start
[A]Broken from the [B5]start
Verse 3 (Same as other verses except where noted)
They won't pay a cent to hear you laughing
They might pay a little to hear you cry
If you do it long enough
[F#m] [Bm]
