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!

D F# G Gm
So damn easy to say that life's so hard
D F# G Gm
Every-body's got their share of battle scars
D F# G Gm
As for me I'd like to thank my lucky stars that
D F# G Gm
I'm a-live and well
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

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
D F# G Gm
And I'm alive and well
D F# G Gm
I'm a-live and well
Here's the little solo lick being played over the above riff at the end.
