Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

Are you disappointed? Is this world a let down?

With your head in the clouds its time to get down

Head on collision crushed by dreams

So we leave our hearts at the accident scene

Shattered, pieces scattered who told us it was ok

To allow our thoughts to be flattered

And entertained with ideas that can’t sustain

A future once so confidently proclaimed

So where to you go from here when it all disappears

Apathy dries your tears until you don’t care or you

Live and die occupied with

Disclaimers and reasons as to why

Realize life isn’t lived in fantasies

No matter how much planning or strategy

Joy comes along with tragedy. I won them all gladly

Chorus

I’m alright. I’m okay. I kind of like doing things this way.

All I have is what God gives and that’s all the life that I was meant to live

Verse 2

We’re not taught trial and error. We’re not taught nor are we prepared

So we fail against everyday opponents

All the while we’re still living for glorious moments

And the media feeds the youth a false reality

Of what it takes to make yourself happy

And since they’ve got about a one in a billion shot

Why try and make them think its something its not

No this ain’t no movie, this real life

The spot light don’t shine quite as bright as some might like

But that’s alright cos the starlight at night is

More of a highlight than the high life

The air I consume from the breath of creation

Renews my soul everyday I awake and

Ah man, tell me who knew that simply being content was the dream come true

Chorus

I’m alright. I’m okay. I kind of like doing things this way.

All I have is what God gives and that’s all the life that I was meant to live

(play this to finish)

This is almost completely F# and B. Easy enough. Just bar the second fret the whole

time exept in the chorus when you play the C#, then just move the bar up 2 frets and

play the same B shape. You need these bar chords to get the album sound, but not

necessarily to make it sound good. So you can move this up a half a step and play it

in G: F# à G, B à C, and C# à D. It’s no problem. I don’t recommend capoing the

fourth fret and playing in D though. It really misses that way.
