| D | |
| it's alright 40 days of rain |
| skin streched out from the growing pain |
| it'd be nice to have an explination |
| but it's alright |
| D | |
| and it's alright if you hate that way |
| if you hate me 'cause I'm different |
| if you hate me 'cause I'm gay |
| the truth of the matter come around one day |
| and it's alright |
| G | |
| I look at this life line streched |
| Gm | D | |
| way all across my | hand |
| D | E7 | |
| I look at the burned out | empty |
| G | A7 | |
| like a plague across the | land |
| G | Gm | |
| and for everything I learned | there are |
| D | |
| two I don't under | stand |
| E7 | |
| that's why I'm still on a | search |
| through the weather strewn church |
| E7 | G | A7 | |
| I'm doing the | best that I | can |
| (stop) |
| and it's alright |
| D | |
| it's alright though we worry and fuss |
| we can't get over the hump |
| can't get over us |
| seems easier to let go and trust |
| but it's alright |
| D | |
| when we get a little distant some |
| things get clearer |
| give 'em space some hearts grow nearer |
| I ran as hard as I could |
| still ended up here |
| and it's alright |
| G | |
| Well I look at this life line streched |
| Gm | D | |
| way all across my | hand |
| E7 | |
| I look at the fires | of hatred |
| burning up the bounty of this |
| G | |
| beautiful land |
| Gm | |
| and I know I'm small in a | way |
| D | |
| but I know I'm | strong |
| E7 | |
| and it's my | thirst that brought me to the water |
| G | A7 | |
| I give it all up as she | carries me | on |
| and it's alright |
| *bridge* |
| G A D x2 |
| (finger picking) |
| D | |
| and it's alright if I feel afraid |
| E7 | |
| my plans in | pieces, my plans mislaid |
| G | |
| it's the will of the | way, the will of the way |
| A | |
| the will of the | only way that could have |
| brought me here today |
| (stop) |
| and it's alright |
