Verse:
C
Ron from Houston, Texas
                                     F        C
Spent three years fightin' ALS
      F
If you knew all that he's been through
                 G
You'd hardly say he's blessed
              C                         C/E
But smilin' through a phone call
                          C
He said "Let  me tell you, friend
                      G
This life ain't always wonderful
                             F                   C
But what a wonderful life it's been"
 
Chorus:
             F
It'll send you flyin' high
 
It'll bring you to your knees
                     C
It's the heartbreak and the happiness
               G
And everything between
                    F
It's the laugh until it hurts
 
It's the hurt until you cry
                      C
Can't have one without the other
                       G
It's how you know that you're alive
                  C                 Dm
In this broken and beautiful
C/E                         F
Gone mad and magical
Am               G           C
Awfully, wonderful life
 
Verse 2:
       C
It's a mountain and a valley
       F            C
It's a cradle and a gravе
 
It's a blessing and a battle
            G
And it's on any given day
     C           C/E
It's mеssy and imperfect
       F                C
It's a thief and it's a gift
                             G
Yeah, this life ain't always wonderful
           F                 C
But what a wonderful life it is
 
Chorus:
      F
It'll send you flyin' high
 
It'll bring you to your knees
         C
It's the heartbreak and the happiness
    G
And everything between
         F
It's the laugh until it hurts
 
It's the hurt until you cry
           C
Can't have one without the other
             G
It's how you know that you're alive
        C          Dm
In this broken and beautiful
C/E          F
Gone mad and magical
Am       G         C
Awfully, wonderful life
 
Post-Chorus:
               C   G
This wonderful life
                 F    C G
It's a wonderful life
 
Bridge:
C
Ron went home to Jesus
        F              C
Got the call the other day
 
I sat and cried and thought about
    G
The words I heard him say
   C               C/E
"I know there is a Heaven
        F            C
Waitin' for us after this
                       G
This life ain't always wonderful
         F                    C
But this life ain't all there is
         Am                G
No, this life ain't always wonderful
         F                    C
But this life ain't all there is"
 
Chorus:
           F
So, let it send you flyin' high
 
Let it bring me to my knees
          C
Bring the heartbreak and the happiness
    G
And everything between
       F
Let me laugh until it hurts
 
Let me hurt until I cry
            C
And when it comes my time to go
     G
I'll smile and wave goodbye
        C          Dm
To this broken and beautiful
C/E          F
Gone mad and magical
Am       G         F
Awfully, wonderful life

C/E          F
Gone mad and magical
Am      G         C
Awfully wonderful life
