It's Alright

i[D]t'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

a[D]nd 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

I[G] look at this life line streched

w[Gm]ay all across my ha[D]nd

I[D] look at the burned out em[E7]pty

l[G]ike a pl[A7]ague across the land

a[G]nd for everything I learned th[Gm]ere are

t[D]wo I don't understand

t[E7]hat's why I'm still on a search
through the weather strewn church

 [E7]
I[G]'m doing the[A] best that I can
(stop)
and it's alright

i[D]t'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

w[D]hen 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

W[G]ell I look at this life line streched

w[Gm]ay all across my ha[D]nd

I[E7] look at the fires of hatred
burning up the bounty of this

b[G]eautiful land

a[Gm]nd I know I'm small in a way

b[D]ut I know I'm strong

a[E7]nd it's my thirst that brought me to the water

I[G] give it al[A]l up as she carries me on
and it's alright

 [G]  [A]
 [D] x2

(finger picking)

a[D]nd it's alright if I feel afraid

m[E7]y plans in pieces, my plans mislaid

i[G]t's the will of the way, the will of the way

t[A]he will of the only way that could have
brought me here today
(stop)
and it's alright
