Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Verse 1
Are you disappointed? Is this world a let down?
With your head in the clouds its time to get down
Head on collision crushed by dreams
So we leave our hearts at the accident scene
Shattered, pieces scattered who told us it was ok
To allow our thoughts to be flattered
And entertained with ideas that cant sustain
A future once so confidently proclaimed
So where to you go from here when it all disappears
Apathy dries your tears until you dont care or you
Live and die occupied with
Disclaimers and reasons as to why
Realize life isnt lived in fantasies
No matter how much planning or strategy
Joy comes along with tragedy. I won them all gladly
Chorus
Im alright. Im okay. I kind of like doing things this way.
All I have is what God gives and thats all the life that I was meant to live
Verse 2
Were not taught trial and error. Were not taught nor are we prepared
So we fail against everyday opponents
All the while were still living for glorious moments
And the media feeds the youth a false reality
Of what it takes to make yourself happy
And since theyve got about a one in a billion shot
Why try and make them think its something its not
No this aint no movie, this real life
The spot light dont shine quite as bright as some might like
But thats alright cos the starlight at night is
More of a highlight than the high life
The air I consume from the breath of creation
Renews my soul everyday I awake and
Ah man, tell me who knew that simply being content was the dream come true
Chorus
Im alright. Im okay. I kind of like doing things this way.
All I have is what God gives and thats all the life that I was meant to live
(play this to finish)
This is almost completely F# and B. Easy enough. Just bar the second fret the whole
time exept in the chorus when you play the C#, then just move the bar up 2 frets and
play the same B shape. You need these bar chords to get the album sound, but not
necessarily to make it sound good. So you can move this up a half a step and play it
in G: F# à G, B à C, and C# à D. Its no problem. I dont recommend capoing the
fourth fret and playing in D though. It really misses that way.
