NOTES: = I capo 5th fret to match 'Black Bear Sessions' album.  A little high, but
it captures the tambre of the Mandolin while fingerpicking on guitar.  Otherwise, 
agree on a key, capo any fret and play in C.       No capo (mandolins?)  Then 
transpose the tune to F for the album key.        (F=C, G=C, Am=Dm, F=Bb, Am7=Dm7, 
Dm=Gm, Dm7=Gm7.)

On your bed of dirt
With the midnight moon up high

Where the midnight wind 
Makes your soul and spirit cry

Getting along and getting by
And you know I miss
Every single kiss
As the years go rollin' by

Good to be alive?
When your mountain top and.
 Feelin High
 
Oooooh Mama aint it
Good to be alive?
When you're down and rollin'
 Free to ride
