VERSE 1 :53 into youtube video
[C][single]Ron from Houston, Texas
Spent three years [|][F][single]fightin' ALS[C][single][|]
[C][single]If you knew all that he's been through
You'd [|][G][single]hardly say he's blessed
But [|][C][single]smilin' through a phone call
He said [|]"[F][single]Let me tell you, [C][single]friend
This [|][C][single]life ain't always [G][single]wonderful
But what a [|][F][double]wonderful life it's [C][single]been"

CHORUS (Strum, 2,3,2,1,2,3,2)
It'll [|][F]send you flyin' high
It'll [|][F]bring you to your knees
It's the [|][C]heartbreak and the happiness
And [|][G]everything between
It's the [|][F]laugh until it hurts
It's the [|][F]hurt until you cry
Can't have [|][C]one without the other
It's how you [|][G]know that you're alive
In this [|][C][strum,2,3]broken and beauti[Dm][strum,2,3]ful
Gone [|][C][strum,2,3]mad and mag[F][strum,2,3]ical
Aw[|][Am][strum,2,3]fully wonder[G][strum,2,3]ful [|][C][strum,2,3,2,1,2,3,2]life[|][C][strum,2,3,2,1,2,3,2]

VERSE 2 (Strum, 2,3,2,1,2,3,2)
It's a [|][C]mountain and a valley
It's a [|][F]cradle and a [C]grave
It's a [|][C]blessing and a battle
And it's on [|][G]any given day
It's [|][C]messy and imperfect
It's a [|][F]thief and it's a [C]gift
Yeah, this [|][C]life ain't always [G]wonderful
But what a [|][F]wonderful life it [C]is

CHORUS (Strum, 2,3,2,1,2,3,2)
It'll [|][F]send you flyin' high
It'll [|][F]bring you to your knees
It's the [|][C]heartbreak and the happiness
And [|][G]everything between
It's the [|][F]laugh until it hurts
It's the [|][F]hurt until you cry
Can't have [|][C]one without the other
It's how you [|][G]know that you're alive
In this [|][C][strum,2,3]broken and beauti[Dm][strum,2,3]ful
Gone [|][C][strum,2,3]mad and mag[F][strum,2,3]ical
Aw[|][Am][strum,2,3]fully wonder[G][strum,2,3]ful [|][F][strum,2,3,2,1,2,3,2]life[|]

[F]...This wonderful [|][C]life [|]
[G]It's a wonderful [|][F] life[|]

[F]	[|]	[C]	[|]	[G]	[|]

VERSE 3 (Strum, 2,3,2,1,2,3,2)
[C][single]Ron went home to Jesus
Got the [|][F][single]call the other [C][single]day
I [|][C][single]sat and cried and thought about
The [|][G][single]words I heard him say
I [|][C][single]know there is a Heaven[|]
[pause2]Waitin' [F][single]for us after [|][C][single]this
This [C][double]life ain't always [|][G][double]wonderful
But this [F][double]life ain't all there [|][C][building]is
No, this [Am]life ain't always [|][G]wonderful
But this [F]life ain't all there [|][C]is [|][C] [|]

CHORUS (Strum, 2,3,2,1,2,3,2 or just strum)
It'll [|][F]send you flyin' high
It'll [|][F]bring you to your knees
Bring the [|][C]heartbreak and the happiness
And [|][G]everything between
It's the [|][F]laugh until it hurts
It's the [|][F]hurt until you cry
When it [|][C]comes my turn to go
I'll [|][G]smile and wave goodbye 
to this [|][C][strum,2,3]broken and beauti[Dm][strum,2,3]ful
Gone [|][C][strum,2,3]mad and mag[F][strum,2,3]ical
Aw[|][Am][strum,2,3]fully wonder[G][strum,2,3]ful [|][F][strum,2,3,2,1,2,3,2]life

In this [|][F][strum,2,3]broken and beauti[Dm][strum,2,3]ful
Gone [|][C][strum,2,3]mad and mag[F][strum,2,3]ical
Aw[|][Am][strum,2,3]fully wonder[G][strum,2,3]ful [|][C][strum_single]life
