[Intro]
\nWake up (woke up)
\nAnother sunrise
\n(Another chance)
\nTo open up our eyes<\/p>\n

No guarantees
\n(No perfect plan)
\nJust take a breath
\n(And do what we can)<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nThe road gets rough
\nThe skies turn gray
\nSometimes you lose
\nYour way of day<\/p>\n

But there’s a spark
\nThat carries through
\nA little something
\nInside of you<\/p>\n

A chance to laugh
\n(A chance to learn)
\nA chance to give
\n(A chance to turn)<\/p>\n

Another page
\nAnother start
\nFeel the rhythm
\nInside your heart<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nI’m glad
\n(Oh so glad)
\nGlad to be alive
\n(Glad to strive…)<\/p>\n

To be alive…
\n(To arrive live)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nI’m glad for music
\n(I’m glad for play)
\nFor dancing through
\nAnother day<\/p>\n

Love the note
\nThat finds its place
\nCreates a smile
\nOn someone’s face<\/p>\n

For roads untraveled
\nThings unknown
\nFor seeds of thought
\nThat we have sown<\/p>\n

For the chance
\nFor “One More Dance!”
\nAnd find there’s more
\nThat we can do<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nI’m glad
\n(Oh so glad)
\nGlad to be alive
\n(Glad to strive…)<\/p>\n

To be alive…
\n(To arrive live)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nIn the human race
\nTo reach the end
\nIt’s feel the turn
\nAround the bend<\/p>\n

[Breakdown]
\nAre you glad?
\n(Yes, I’m glad!)
\nAre you here?
\n(I love to hear!)<\/p>\n

Can you feel?
\n(It’s all real!)
\nCan you play?
\n(All dang day!)<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nI’m glad
\n(Oh so glad)
\nGlad to be alive
\n(Glad to strive…)<\/p>\n

To be alive…
\n(To arrive live)<\/p>\n

[Instrumental Break]<\/p>\n

[Final Refrain]
\nI’m glad
\n(Oh so glad)
\nGlad to be alive
\n(Glad to strive…)<\/p>\n

To be alive…
\n(To arrive live)<\/p>\n

I’m glad
\n(Glad to be here)
\nI’m glad
\n(Another year)<\/p>\n

I’m glad
\n(For what may be)
\nGlad to be alive
\n(And glad to be free)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\nAnother day
\n(Another chance)
\nAnother song
\n(Another dance)<\/p>\n

I’m glad to live
\nAnd glad to begin<\/p>\n

Glad…
\n(Oh so glad)<\/p>\n

Glad to be alive!
\n(Glad we survive)<\/p>\n
