I'm Still Alive

Verse 1
BACK WHEN I'S A BOY, I'S A LITTLE BIT WRECKLESS
ALWAYS INTO TROUBLE WITH BY MY OLD MAN
I THINK ABOUT IT EVERY NOW AND THEN
I CAN STILL REMEMBER SNEAKING OUT ONE NIGHT
TRYIN TO GO HUNTING ON PROTECTED LAND, HE SAID
I TOOK MY LIFE IN MY OWN HANDS

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD, LONG AGO BUT I...

Chorus
I'M STILL ALIVE...I'M STILL GOING STRONG
I'M STILL ALIVE...MORE THAN JUST HANGING ON
I'M STILL ALIVE
BY NOW I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD HALF A DOZEN TIMES
BUT I'M STILL ALIVE


Verse 2
HIGHSPEED CAR WRECK TOTALLED MY BIKE
I WALKED AWAY WHEN I SHOULD HAVE DIED
I HOPE JESUS PAYS MY ANGELS OVER TIME
THIRTY NINE YEARS OLD MOWING MY YARD
I FELT CHEST PAINS SQUEEZE MY HEART
WOKE UP WITH A DOCTOR AT MY BEDSIDE

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD LONG AGO BUT I...

Chorus
I'M STILL ALIVE...I'M STILL GOING STRONG
I'M STILL ALIVE...MORE THAN JUST HANGING ON
I'M STILL ALIVE
BY NOW I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD HALF A DOZEN TIMES
BUT I'M STILL ALIVE

Bridge
FOR YEARS I COULDN'T SEE WHY GOD WOULD SAVE MY LIFE
ONE DAY I GOT THE NERVE TO ASK HIM WHY
NOW I KNOW THE TRUTH
I'VE STILL GOT WORK TO DO
HE SAID I SAVED YOU BECAUSE I WANT YOU BY MY SIDE

Chorus
CAUSE I'M STILL ALIVE...I'M STILL GOING STRONG
I'M STILL ALIVE...MORE THAN JUST HANGING ON
I'M STILL ALIVE
BY NOW YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD HALF A DOZEN TIMES
BUT I'M STILL ALIVE...I'M STILL GOING STRONG
I'M STILL ALIVE...MORE THAN JUST HANGING ON
I'M STILL ALIVE
BY NOW YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD HALF A DOZEN TIMES
BUT I'M STILL ALIVE
I'M STILL ALIVE
I'M STILL ALIVE
HE'S STILL ALIVE
