This Is What It Means

D
I've built some dreams

I've held them close
D
Celebrated perfect days
D
I lost the one i loved the most

Now she's 6 feet of earth away
     A           Bm
I've cried til I thought I couldn't stop
          A               Bm
And I've laughed until it hurt
         A             Bm
And I've prayed in an empty parking lot
       A               Bm
And my friends were my church

[Chorus 1]
D             Em G             A
Sometimes the joy can give you wings to fly
D             Em       G                 A
Sometimes the pain will cut your soul just like a knife
D            Em             G             A
There's fear, there's faith, there's loss, there's grace
Bm                       E
I've seen it from both sides

This is what it means to be alive, alive
D               A           Bm
This is what it means to be alive

[Verse 2]
D
I've seen the face of held to hand
D
Of a child without a home
D
A casualty of circumstance

Written off and all alone
     A              Bm
I've cried for the wars that they've been through
         A                Bm
And i've walked by their side
      A               Bm
I've watched what the power of love can do
    A              Bm
And how it changes lives

[Chorus 2]
D             Em G             A
Sometimes the joy can give you wings to fly
D             Em       G               A
Sometimes the pain will cut your soul just like a knife
D             Em            G             A
There's fear, there's faith, there's loss, there's grace
Bm                       E
I've seen it from both sides
D               A           Bm
This is what it means to be alive, alive
D               A           Bm
This is what it means to be alive
D               A                      Bm                      D             A
This is what it means, this is what it means, this is what it means to be alive, alive
N.C.

D             Em G             A
Sometimes the joy can give you wings to fly
D             Em  G                    A
Sometimes the pain will cut your soul just like a knife
D             Em             G             A
There's fear, there's faith, there's loss, there's grace
