[Verse 1]
This mGornin' I got up at 6:01
CI walked out and saw the rising sun
And I drEmank it in like whCiskey
I saw a tGree I've seen a thousand times
A bCird on a branch and I watched it fly awEmay in the wind
And it hCit me
It's a beEmautiful world sometDimes I don't see so Cclear
[Chorus]
Some days you just brGeath in
Just try to break Ceven
Sometimes your heaEmrt's poundin' out of your chest
Sometimes it's just bCeatin'
Some days you just fGorget
What all you've been gCiven
Some dEmays you just get back
And some dCays you're just alive
Some days you're lGivin'C  
Some days you're lEmivin'C  
[Verse 2]
I wGent back in and fired the coffee up
She wCalked in the kitchen like she always does
In mEmy t-shirt and it kCilled me
And I kGissed her like it was the first time
She lCaughed and looked at me like I'd lost my mind
I said "BEmaby, I love you, can't live without you, I knCow I don't say it enough"
[Chorus]
Some days you just brGeath in
Just try to break Ceven
Sometimes your heaEmrt's poundin' out of your chest
Sometimes it's just bCeatin'
Some days you just fGorget
What all you've been gCiven
Some dEmays you just get back
And some dCays you're just alive
Some days you're lGivin'

You're hEmigh's a little high
You feel that fire you've been mCissing
Some days you're lGiving

[Intro]

G C Em C

[Verse 1]

This mornin' I got up at 6:01

I walked out and saw the rising sun

Em C

And I drank it in like whiskey

I saw a tree I've seen a thousand times

C Em

A bird on a branch and I watched it fly away in the wind

And it hit me

Em D C

It's a beautiful world sometimes I don't see so clear

[Chorus]

Some days you just breath in

Just try to break even

Sometimes your heart's poundin' out of your chest

Sometimes it's just beatin'

Some days you just forget

What all you've been given

Some days you just get back

And some days you're just alive

G C

Some days you're livin'

Em C

Some days you're livin'

[Verse 2]

I went back in and fired the coffee up

She walked in the kitchen like she always does

Em C

In my t-shirt and it killed me

And I kissed her like it was the first time

She laughed and looked at me like I'd lost my mind

Em C

I said "Baby, I love you, can't live without you, I know I don't say it enough"

[Chorus]

Some days you just breath in

Just try to break even

Sometimes your heart's poundin' out of your chest

Sometimes it's just beatin'

Some days you just forget

What all you've been given

Some days you just get back

And some days you're just alive

Some days you're livin'

[Post-Chorus]

Like you never die

Blue's a little bluer up in the sky

You're high's a little high

You feel that fire you've been missing

Some days you're living

It'a beautiful world sometimes I don't see so clear

[Chorus]

Some days you start singin'

And you don't need a reason

Sometimes the world's just right

Your clear eyes ain't even blinkin'

Got a heart full of grateful

For all you've been given

Some days you just get by

Yeah some days you're just alive

G C

Some days you're livin'

Em C

Some days you're livin'

[Post-Chorus]

Livin' like you'll never die

Blue's a little bluer up in the sky

You're high's a little high

You feel that fire you've been missing

G C

Some days you're living

Em C

Some days you're living
