[Verse1:]
F#m A
From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
E F#
Confusing stars for satellites
F#m A
I never dreamed that you'd be mine

But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen I, I'm alive
A E F#
Singing Amen I, I'm alive
[CHORUS]
D A
If everyone cared and nobody cried,
E F#
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
D A
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
E
We'd see the day, when nobody died
And I'm singing
F#m A E F#m
A-Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
F#m A E F#m
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
[Verse2:]
F#m A
And in the air the fireflies
E F#
Our only light in paradise
F#m A
We'll show the world they were wrong
E F#
And teach them all to sing along

A E F#
Singing Amen I, I'm alive (I'm alive)
A E F#
Singing Amen I, I'm alive

And as we lie beneath the stars,
E F#
We realize how small we are,
F#m A
If they could love like you and me,
E F#
Imagine what the world could be

We'd see the day when nobody died
End on E
