Were Alive Guitar Chords by Keith Johns

[Intro]
(Cmaj)


[Verse 1]
    (Cmaj)
The wind that's in the trees
       (Fmaj)                  (Cmaj)
Is the same that stirs in me
   (Amin)               (Gmaj)        (Cmaj)
The best things have always been free
      (Cmaj)
I can taste the dust I'm of,
          (Fmaj)                 (Cmaj)
Taste the hope and loss and love
       (Amin)            (Gmaj)       (Cmaj)
Of the countless who lived before me


[Verse 2]
   (Cmaj)
So let's raise our noses high,
      (Fmaj)                 (Cmaj)
Let's toast to this new life
       (Amin)       (Gmaj)          (Cmaj)
And the ecstasy found in each breath
      (Cmaj)
Let's dance in the light of dawn,
          (Fmaj)               (Cmaj)
While the curtain remains drawn
        (Amin)          (Gmaj)         (Cmaj)
In this brief intermission between death


[Chorus]
      (Cmaj)         (Gmaj)         (Amin)
We're alive! Oh-Oohhh Ohh Ohhhh
   (Dmaj)              (Gmaj)
Magnificent, this world we're in
           (Gmaj)            (Fmaj)     (Dmaj)
Where each sunrise is a symphony,
    (Fmaj)         (Fmin)      (Cmaj)
And you are a work of art.


[Instrumental]
(Cmaj)   (Fmaj)   (Cmaj)   (Amin)   (Gmaj)    (Cmaj) x2


[Verse 3]
         (Cmaj)
So let's whistle while we walk
      (Fmaj)                (Cmaj)
Don't heed the tick or tock
           (Amin)      (Gmaj)             (Cmaj)
Of that mechanical bandit, the clock
           (Cmaj)
If you're burdened down by time
     (Fmaj)                 (Cmaj)
Dive deep in another's eyes
          (Amin)              (Gmaj)            (Cmaj)
Where the hours melt like waves on the rocks


[Chorus]
      (Cmaj)         (Gmaj)         (Amin)
We're alive! Oh-Oohhh Ohh Ohhhh
    (Dmaj)             (Gmaj)
Magnificent, this world we're in
            (Cmaj)                  (Fmaj)    (Dmaj)
Where each step you take makes history,
   (Fmaj)           (Fmin)        (Cmaj)
So join in and play your part
         (Cmaj)                  (Fmaj)     (Dmaj)
And each passing smile's an eternity,
    (Fmaj)                   (Amin)           (Dmaj)
Who knows what it could start  Ah-ah Ahhhh?
           (Cmaj)                 (Fmaj)    (Dmaj)
Where each creature sings in harmony,
      (Fmaj)            (Fmin)      (Cmaj)
Let's join in with all our hearts.


[Chorus]
N.(Cmaj).
We're alive! Oh-Oohhh Ohh Ohhhh
                       (Gmaj)
Magnificent, this world we're in
           (Cmaj)       E    (Fmaj)     (Dmaj)
Where each sunrise is a symphony,
    (Fmaj)         (Fmin)      (Cmaj)
And you are a work of art.

              (Cmaj)                      (Fmaj)    (Dmaj)
And it's more beautiful than I could ever dream
       (Fmaj)                (Fmin)        (Cmaj)
And my love, you're the very best part.


[Outro]
(Cmaj)   (Fmaj)   (Cmaj)   (Amin)   (Gmaj)    (Cmaj)  (x2)
