I was watching Michael Franti's video on how to play his song and I thought that I
should share the tabs.
MICHAEL FRANTI & SPEARHEAD -"I'm Alive (Life Sounds Like)"
Intro: B-E-C#m-E-B
1, 2, 1, 2
Here we go
B E
Everybody wants me to be who they want me to be except you
C#m E B
All I wanna do is be with you
B
They all tell me that there’s something strange
E
I don’t wanna be with nobody new
C#m E B
All I wanna do is be with you
Life sounds like
B
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
E
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive
(This is what it sounds like)
C#m E B
Whoa-oh-oh, I’m alive
B
How could every day something jumps in the way
E
Gets complicated, I feel devastated
C#m E B
But when I’m feeling down, I only wanna be with you
B
I can’t afford the rent or remember checks I sent
E
To pay off all my taxes and feed the president
C#m E B
But there’s one thing I remember, I only wanna be with you

Through the San Francisco night
