Im Alright

Jersey Green


Tom: G

     Em
Those green eyes
        C
And that contagious smile
         G              D             
And those lips, and the way they verbalize
Em                      C
  New York City, what a beauty to our eyes
         G
Then you held my hand the first time
    D
You looked at me and smiled

Em
  Everything was perfect
C
  Everything was great
G
  I was on a fairytale
       D
It's a dream while I'm awake
Em
  But days passed and we weren't there
C                                G          D
  And it felt like we didn't care anymore, anymore


[Pre-Chorus]
   C         
But why'd we say goodbye?
                  D                    Dsus2* D* Dsus4*
We said we didn't have enough time for both   of us
       C           
We said we try, to work things out
          D
But all a sudden we're all tired
    D*
And said goodbye


[Chorus]
                     G              D/F#
It's sad not to hear you calling me up at three AM
Em                               C**           D**
  No one's ever gonna sing to me Stevie Wonder songs again
G                D/F#  
  I'll miss your kiss and your curly hair
Em          
  But now that we said goodbye
C**              D**
I'll pretend that I'm alright
G             D/F#        
  Yeah, I'm alright, I'm alright
Em                
  You said you didn't wanna see me cry
C                D**
I'll pretend that I'm alright
G      D/F#         Em    C    D**
 I'm alright, I'm alright


[Verse]
Em
  I miss you holding hotel keys
C                                        
  And watch you sing to girls with happy tears
G                                   
  When you're on stage, you point at me
D                                 
  You sing to me, as I chant your name

Em                           
  And as the spotlights disappear
C                                 
  It's a different person that I'm with
G                          D
  So much simpler, so much better, and just so beautiful
Em                                 
  The way we laugh with four more guys
C                                    
  You walk around naked and cover my eyes
G
  You're just so funny
          D                            C
I can't believe that we're letting this go


[Pre-Chorus]
   C        
But why'd we say goodbye?
                  D                    Dsus2* D* Dsus4*
We said we didn't have enough time for both   of us
       C           
We said we try, to work things out
          D 
But all a sudden we're all tired

And said goodbye


[Chorus]
                     G              D/F#
It's sad not to hear you calling me up at three AM
Em                               C             D**
  No one's ever gonna sing to me Stevie Wonder songs again
G                D/F#  
  I'll miss your kiss and your curly hair
Em          
  But now that we said goodbye
C                 D**
I'll pretend that I'm alright
G             D/F#        
  Yeah, I'm alright, I'm alright
Em                
  You said you didn't wanna see me cry
C                D**
I'll pretend that I'm alright


[Bridge]
G
  Maybe it's time to let it go
D/F#
  Maybe it's better off alone
Em
  Maybe today's the wrong time
C               D**            
  Someday we'll learn to be strong
G  
  Maybe you're right about this
D/F#                          
  We're busy people with busy lives
Em                    C
  We can't keep up on this
D**
So goodbye


[Interlude]
G  D/F#  Em  C


[Outro]
G        D/F#
 Call me up at three AM
Em        C             D**
  Sing me Stevie Wonder songs again
G      D/F#
  Your kiss and your curly hair
Em                   C** D**
 Bever gonna say goodbye
               G
'Cause we're alright
