C                              D
As I start to make my way back home
C                                                     D
Through the crowded streets where the people come and go
C                                      D
All the faces that I see, they seem to show,
C                  G      D
A standing ovation, for you
C                  G      D
A standing ovation, for you.
 
G                                    D
We're alive, now let's just take our time
                        C
Now let's just make the most of every day we have,
D                                   G
The most of every moment, we're alive
                         D
Now let's not waste our time
                         C
Now let's just make the most of every breath we take
     D
The most of every second we're alive
C                     D
Ohhhh, 'cause we're alive
C
Ohhhh.
 
[Same chords as first verse]
Out the window of a train, the cities go
Pass so fast just like the days I watch you grow
And one day you will walk away from all you know
This standing ovation's for you
This standing ovation's for you.
 
[Chorus, same chords]
 
C          D          G                               Bm
Can't you see, the world is on their feet for you and me
C                            D
And its alright, you've got me
C                     G                 Bm
'Cause even when I'm gone, I'll never leave
C                     G
So go and get your dreams.
 
[Chorus, same chords]
 
[First verse again, same chords, end on D]
