Strum
D-DU-UDU
It’s  never alright.  It comes and it goes.
 Oh it’s always around,  even when it don’t show.
 They say it gets better.  Well I guess that it might.
 But even when it’s better,  it’s never alright.
 It’s never OK.  Lonely moves here and  there.
 Sometimes it stays  in one place and just stares.
 They say that the darkness  is just before light.
 Each day may get brighter,  but it’s never alright.
 Chorus/Bridge
Try  real hard to remember as good as it gets.
 But the harder  and harder I try, all  I can do is forget.
 horns on first two lines, then sing last two)
 It’s never been mine  to win or to lose.
 No it’s always been yours,  to pick or to choose.
 They say love is better  when set free now halftime
 But even when it’s better,  it’s never alright.
 Even if it gets better,  it won’t be alright.
