VERSE1:
Imagine [C]this: I get a phone [F]call from Regis,[C]
He says, "Do you [F]wanna be a million[C]aire?"
F F(N.C.)
They put me on the show and I win with two lifelines to spare
[G]Picture [C]this: I act like [F]nothin' ever happened,[C]
I bury all the [F]money in a coffee [Am]can
Well, I've been [G]given more than [C]Regis ever [F]gave a[Am]way
I was a [G]dead man who was [C]called to come out [F]of my [Am]grave
I think it's [G]time for [C]makin' some [F]noise! :)

CHORUS:
Wake the [C]neighbors,[F] get the word [C]out, [F]
Come on,[C] crank up the [F]music, climb a [Am]mountain and shout
[G]This is [C]life we've been [F]given, made to [Am]be lived [Am7]out
So [F]la, la, la, la [Bb]live [B]out [C]loud[F][C][F]
C F C F(N.C.)
Live out loud, yeah

VERSE 2:
Think about [C]this: Try to keep a [F]bird from singin',[C]
After it's [F]soared up in the [C]sky
F F(N.C.)
Give the sun a cloudless day and tell it not to shine
[G]Think about [C]this: if we really [F]have been given,[C]
A gift of l[F]ife that will never [Am]end
And if we [G]have been filled with [C]living hope, we're [F]gonna over[Am]flow
If God's [G]love is burning [C]in our hearts we're [F]gonna [Am]glow
There's just no [G]way to [C]keep it [F]in
