MUSIC MAKES ME COME ALIVE
Words and music by Lachlan Irvine
[C] When I was young, I lived by a railway track;
How I [F] loved to hear those [C] trains go clickety-clack.
Long be-[F]-fore I heard the music that the [C] world calls rock 'n' [Am] roll
[C] I had that rhythm [G] deep down in my [C] soul.
[C] Oh yeah, uh-huh, give me music every day,
A simple [F] melody can [C] take my breath away.
Give me [F] pop or give me country, give me [C] blues or a rockin' [Am] jive,
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live.
[C] First girl I loved, I really thought she'd be the one;
I [F] took it hard when she [C] told me we were done.
I [F] spent night after lonely night at [C] home with the radio [Am] on,
Those [C] late night love songs [G] helped me feel less a-[C]-lone.
As [C] time rolled by, music helped my heart to heal;
I [F] knew some day I'd [C] find a love that's real.
With [F] so much music in the air, I [C] know love is going to [Am] thrive.
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live.
[C]///[F]/[C]/[F]/[C][Am][C][G][C]/
Any [C] time of day, when I hear a favourite song,
I've [F] got no choice, I just [C] have to sing along.
I [F] might be singing out of tune, and I'm [C] probably way off [Am] key,
But wher-[C]-ever there's music, [G] that's where I want to [C] be.
I want to [C] hear it played, by a band in a concert hall,
In a [F] pub or club, or by a [C] busker in the mall
I got it [F] blasting from the speakers, in my [C] car any time I [Am] drive;
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live.
[C] Oh yeah, uh-huh, give me music every day,
A simple [F] melody can [C] take my breath away.
Give me [F] pop or give me country, give me [C] blues or a rockin' [Am] jive,
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live. [Am]
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live. [Am]
No matter [C] how I'm feeling, [G] music makes me come a-[C]-live.
