It's Alright (written by Emily Saliers)
Indigo Girls
from: Shaming of the Sun
(in 4/4 time, DADGBe tuning)

This is a very rough idea of it, and I'm sorry,
but it's better than nothing.  =)  Hopefully
they'll come out with a song book soon.

----------------------------

Dit's (xx0232@1)alright 40 days of rain
skin streched out from the growing pain
it'd be nice to have an explination
but it's alright
Dand (xx0232@1)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
GI (320003@1)look at this life line streched
Gm (355333@1)              Dway (xx0232@1)all across my hand
D (xx0232@1)                      E7I (020130@1)look at the burned out empty
                         G (320003@1)    A7like (x02020@1)a plague across the land
G (320003@1)                          Gmand (355333@1)for everything I learned there are
                 Dtwo (xx0232@1)I don't understand
                          E7that's (020130@1)why I'm still on a search
through the weather strewn church
E7 (020130@1)          G (320003@1)         A(7)I'm (x02020@1)doing the best that I can
(stop)
and it's alright

Dit's (xx0232@1)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
Dwhen (xx0232@1)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
GWell (320003@1)I look at this life line streched
Gm (355333@1)              Dway (xx0232@1)all across my hand
                    E7I (020130@1)look at the fires of hatred
burning up the bounty of this
Gbeautiful (320003@1)land
                          Gmand (355333@1)I know I'm small in a way
               Dbut (xx0232@1)I know I'm strong
            E7and (020130@1)it's my thirst that brought me to the water
                        G (320003@1)        A(7)I (x02020@1)give it all up as she carries me on
and it's alright

*bridge*
G A D x2

(finger picking)
Dand (xx0232@1)it's alright if I feel afraid
            E7my (020130@1)plans in pieces, my plans mislaid
                     Git's (320003@1)the will of the way, the will of the way
                Athe (x02220@1)will of the only way that could have
brought me here today
(stop)
and it's alright
