Strum
D-DU-UDU
 It was the fear  of God that led  me to you
 And it?s  the fear of you  that takes getting  used
  to
 I?ve never  been one  to hang my heart  on a thread
 But you spun  me around  and you loved  me instead
 I knew I could turn  to something  other than  you
 ?Cause I don?t understand  you and why you?re
  after  me
 I?ve never  been the saint  you wanted me  to turn  to
 And I can?t  see the view  from the eyes  you look
  at me  through, oh  no
 I?m alright,  I?m alright
 I?m alright,  I?m alright
 I?m alright,  I?m alright
 I?m alright
 So cut below the surface  and try hard not  to
  notice
 That I could  be so foolish  thinking I?m  alright
 I?ve got no one  to hold  me, I?ve got no one  to
  carry
 Everything  inside  of me that I won?t let you see
 (on Wurly)
(whistled)

Readable chord sheet for I'm Alright by Jars of Clay

It was the f[E]ear of God that l[A]ed me to you  [E]
And i[A]t?s the fear of y[E]ou that takes [A]getting u[E]sed
    to
I?ve n[A]ever been [E]one to hang my h[A]eart on a th[E]read [A]
But you s[E]pun me ar[A]ound and you l[E]oved me in[A]stead [D2]

I knew I could [E]turn to someth[A]ing other t[E]han you
?Cause I don?t u[A]nderst[E]and you and why you?re
    af[A]ter m[E]e
I?ve n[A]ever been the s[E]aint you wanted [A]me to t[E]urn to
And I ca[A]n?t see the v[E]iew from the ey[A]es you look
    at [E]me through, o[D2]h no

I?m a[E]lright, I?m alr[D]ight
I?m a[E]lright, I?m alr[D]ight
I?m a[E]lright, I?m alr[D]ight
I?m a[C#]lright

So cut below the s[E]urface and try hard n[A]ot to
   n[E]otice
That I c[A]ould be so fo[E]olish thinking I[A]?m alrig[E]ht
I?ve got no o[A]ne to h[E]old me, I?ve got no o[A]ne to
   c[E]arry
Everyt[A]hing insi[E]de of me that I won?t let you [D]see
