Standard (EADGBE)
Some say life is hard
Like swimming upstream or going against the grain
But I say life ain't that hard,
'Cuz I've seen how the joy outweighs the pain.
So you can sit and whine about the time
You've been having;
Oh but as for me I choose to be
As happy as I can be.
Because I'm alright
Trouble may find me,
But it's not gonna keep me down,
Cuz I'll hold on tight
To the father who loves me,
And he likes having me around.
Yeah he loves me, and he cares for me,
And so I'll be... Alright
We go 'round and 'round
Back and forth and almost upside-down
To buy who we are:
A great big house, nice jeans, and a shiny car.
But I'm learning that this world keeps turning
With or without me;
So I'll do my best, I'm gonna leave the rest
To the one watching over me.
Because I'm alright
Trouble may find me,
But it's not gonna keep me down,
Cuz I'll hold on tight
To the father who loves me,
And he likes having me around.
Yeah he loves me, and he cares for me,
And so I'll be... Alright
Alright... Alright...
Alright, Alright, I'm Alright...
