Chords for Travis Tritt - It's a Great Day to Be Alive (from Live & Kickin')

_ _ _ _ Well, [G] I got rice [C] cookin' in the [G] microwave
[D] Got a three-day [Em] beard, I don't [C] plan to shave
[G] And it's a goofy thing, [Em] but I just [C] gotta say
[D] Hey, [C] I'm a-doin' [G] alright
Yeah, think I'll make me some [C] homemade [D] soup
I'm feelin' pretty [Em] good and [C] that's the [G] truth
It's neither [Em] drinkin' nor [C] drug [D]-induced
No, I'm just [G] doin' alright
[D] And it's a great [Em] day to be alive
[Am] I know the [G] sun's still [C] shinin' when I [D] close my eyes
There's some hard [Em] times in the neighborhood
[Am] But why [G] can't every day [C] be just [G] this good?
_ [C] _
[G] _ [D] _ _ [C] [G] It's been fifteen years [C] since I [G] left home
[D] Said good luck [Em] to every seed I'd sown
[G] [D] Gave it my best, [Em] then I left [C] it alone
[D] I [C] hope they're doin' [G] alright
Now I look in the [C] mirror and what do [G] I see?
[D] A long wolf there [Em] starin' back at me
[G] [D] Longin' the truth, [Em] but harmless [C] as can be
[D] Lord, I guess [G] he's doin' alright
And [D] it's a great day [Em] to be alive
I [Am] know the sun's [G] still shinin' when [G] I close [D] my eyes
There's some hard times [Em] in the neighborhood
[Am] But why can't [G] every day be [C] just [D] this good?
[Em] _ Sometimes it's [D] longer
Sometimes [G] it's humbler
And the [Am] [G] shadows that [C] [D] fill this [Em] room _
Sometimes [D] I'm fallin', desperately [C] callin'
[G]
Howlin' [A] at the moon
_ [G] _ _ [C] _
[G] _ [D] Everybody [Em] howl at me, come on, one time!
[G] _ _ [Em] _
[C] _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ [G] _ [D] _ _ [Em] _ [C] _ [G] _ [D] _
[Em] [C] Well, [D] _ [G] _ _ I might go get me [C] a new [G] tat
[D] Or take my [G] old Harley for [Em] a three [C]-day cruise
[G] Might [Em] even grow me a full-man [C] shoe
_ And [D] it's a great day [Em] to be alive
I know [Am] the sun's [G] still shinin' when [C] I close [D] my eyes
There's some hard times in [Em] the neighborhood
[Am] But why can't [G] every day be [C] just [D] this good?
It's a great day [Em] to be alive
