Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I woke up early with a poundin' in my head
I'd been out the night before
With all my friends
A little worried, kinda wondering what I did
I said Lord please forgive me for my sins
My wife wanted to kill me
But, she tried to save me first
You're going, if I have to
Drag your butt to church
[Verse 2]
I love this crazy, tragic
Sometimes almost magic
Awful beautiful life
[Verse 3]
I read the hymns and kinda sorta
Sang along
Made it through the Sunday sermon
Wide awake
We met the family for dinner at our home
Drank some beer, watched the game
And cooked some steaks
My little brother had a big fight with his wife
And my poor mother sat between 'em both all night
[Verse 4]
I love this crazy, tragic
Sometimes almost magic
Awful beautiful life
[Verse 5]
We said a prayer for
Cousin Michael in Iraq
We're all aware that he may
Never make it back
We talked about the way
We missed his stupid jokes
And how he loved to be a soldier
More than most
[Verse 6]
I laid in bed that night
And thought about the day
And how my life is like a
Roller coaster ride
The ups and downs and crazy turns
Along the way
It'll throw you off if you don't
Hold on tight
[Verse 7]
You can't really smile until you
Shed some tears
I could die today, or
I might live on for years
[Verse 8]
I love this crazy, tragic
Sometimes almost magic
Awful beautiful life
[Verse 9]
I love this crazy, tragic
Sometimes almost magic
Awful beautiful life
[Verse 10]
All right
It's a beautiful life
Awful beautiful life
I love this life
It's a beautiful life
I love this life
It's a beautiful life
