I'm Alive - Kenny Chesney and Dave Matthews
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Jason Wilkerson
Email:
Tuning: Down a half step, capo 2nd fret on strings 1-5, leaving 6 open to E-flat
This may not be exact, but it sounds pretty close.
** Note: on the 6th string, the fret specified is from the base of the neck.
All other fret specifications are in relation to the capo. Hope
that makes sense.
Enjoy!

So damn easy to say that life's so hard

As for me I'd like to thank my lucky stars that

D F# G Gm
It'd be easy to add up all the pain
D F# G Gm
And all the dreams you've sat and watch go up in flames
D F# G Gm
Dwell on the wreckage as it smolders in the rain
D F# G Gm
But not me... I'm alive
Bm Bb A E
And to-day you know that's good enough for me
Bm Bb A E
Breathing in and out's a blessing can't you see
Bm Bb A E
Today's the first day of the rest of my life
D F# G Gm
And I'm alive and well
D F# G Gm
I'm a-live and well

Stars are dancin' on the water here to-night

It's good for the soul when there's not a soul in sight
D F# G Gm
This motor's caught its wind and brought me back to life
D F# G Gm
Now I'm a-live and well
Bm Bb A E
And to-day you know that's good enough for me
Bm Bb A E
Breathing in and out's a blessing can't you see
Bm Bb A E
Today's the first day of the rest of my life

And I'm alive and well

I'm a-live and well
