Standard (EADGBE)

After all was said and done

There was nothing left to do

The hardest mile I ever walked

Was the one I walked away from you

So maybe I'm a little ragged around the edges

And I've been keeping a little more to myself these days

I'm alright shot down but I'm still standing

I'm alright a little banged up from the fall

I'm alright still shaky from the landing

I'm alright after all

You know it's really not that bad

No matter how bad it might feel

Cause there ain't nothing time won't fix

This ain't nothing that some time won't heal

So maybe I've been walking a little wounded

I move a little bit slower now

 But that's okay

I'm alright shot down but I'm still standing

I'm alright a little banged up from the fall

I'm alright still shaky from the landing

I'm alright after all

And every now and then I think about you

Oh every now and then I cross the line

Solo

I'm alright shot down but I'm still standing

I'm alright a little banged up from the fall

I'm alright still shaky from the landing

I'm alright after all
