C                               F          C
I was walking down a city street on a shady afternoon
                                                      D            G
With the trucks and buses all hurrying by, I couldn't get away too soon
C                            F             C
Suddenly I heard a sound, it hit me from behind
         F                C              G              C
It was a man singing in a yellow van, "I feel so good inside."


CHORUS:
       F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside
C      F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside


                                          F                C
Well, you know I smiled, what could I do, he took me by surprise
                                                   D            G
And he made the sun shine a little brighter and he opened up my eyes
C                                            F           C
He kept on singing as he drove away with the window open wide
      F                  C                  G              C
And I laugh every time I think of him and I feel so good inside


CHORUS:
       F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside
C      F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside


                                     F            C
It was just an ordinary day, nothing special to recall
                                  D            G
With the usual ups and downs that happen to us all
       C                                  F          C
But it took that man in the yellow van to make me realise
      F                           C                           G              C
We've got to pay attention to the little things that make you feel so good inside


CHORUS:
       F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside
C      F
I feel so happy just to be alive
       C                   G              C
I feel so good, so good, I feel so good inside
