[Verse 1]
I got a [G]rice cooking in the [C]micro[G]wave
Got a [D]three day beard I don't [Em]plan to [C]shave
And it's [G]a goofy t[D]hing but I j[Em]ust gotta say,
[C]hey[D] I'ma doi[C]ng alrig[G]ht
Yeah,
I [G]think I'll make me some [C]home-made [G]soup
I'm [D]feeling pretty good and [Em]that's the [C]truth
[G]It's neither dri[D]nk nor dru[Em]g induced,
[D]no I'm just [C]doing al[G]right

[Chorus 1]
And it's a [D]great day to [Em]be alive
I know the [Am]sun's still shining
When I [C]close my [D]eyes
There's a hard times in the [Em]neighborhood
But [Am]why can't every day be j[C]ust this g[D]ood
[G]Ah,[C][G]
[D]yeah[C]

[Verse 2]
It's been [G]fifteen years since [C]I left h[G]ome
I [D]said good luck to every [Em]seed I'd [C]sown
[G]Gave it my bes[D]t and then I lef[Em]t it alon[C]e
[D]I hope they're doi[C]ng alrig[G]ht
Now I look in the mirror and [C]what do I [G]see
A [D]lone wolf there staring [Em]back at [C]me
[G]Long in the too[D]th but har[Em]mless as can be[C]
[D]Lord, I guess he's [C]doin' al[G]right

[Chorus 2]
And it's a [D]great day to [Em]be alive
I know the [Am]sun's still shining

There's a hard times in the [Em]neighborhood
But [Am]why can't every day be j[C]ust this g[D]ood

[Bridge 1]
[Em]Sometimes it's lonel[D]y,
sometimes it's [C]only me
[G]And the sha[Am]dows that fil[C]l thi[D]s room
[Em]Sometimes I'm fall[D]ing,
desperately [C]calling
[G]Howling at the [Am]moon, [A]ah-ooh,

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G]
[D]ah-[Em]ooh[C]

[D][Em][C]
[G][D][Em][C]
[D][C][G]

[Verse 3]
Well, I [G]might go get me a [C]new tat[G]too
Or [D]take my old Harley for a [Em]three day [C]cruise
[G]Might even gro[D]w me a Fu [Em]Manchu[C]

[Chorus 3]
And it's a great [D]day to [Em]be alive

When I [C]close my [D]eyes
There's a hard times in the [Em]neighborhood
But [Am]why can't every day be j[C]ust this g[D]ood

[Chorus 4]
It's [D]a great day to b[Em]e alive
I know the [Am]sun's still shining
When I [C]close my [D]eyes
There's a hard times in the [Em]neighborhood
But [Am]why can't every day be j[C]ust this g[D]ood
