B5                                            F#5
Were gonna be alright, baby, we are still young.
            E5                       B5                         F#5
Baby, we are still young, and thats more than some people can say. 
B5                                     F#5
Were gonna be okay; at least we have white skin, 
                   E5           B5                   F#5
and when you have white skin nobody can send you away. 
     E5          Ab5        B5              
And people are inclined to help, to help 
      E5                     E5   B5    E5   B5
other people who look like themselves. 



B5                                      F#5
Were gonna be alright; baby, we have rich friends, 
              E5                       B5                         F#5
and when you have rich friends, those kinds of connections can pay. 
B5                                        F#5
We?re gonna be okay; baby, we will rise up. 
                E5            B5                     F#5
Believe we will climb up to inhabit our corner of sky. 
       E5       Ab5       C#5      F#5
And we will be inclined to help, to help 
      E5           F#5            B5    E5    B5
other people who look like ourselves. 


B5                    F#5
Ooooh oooh oooh      Ooooh ooooh ooooh
E5                    B5
Oooooh oooh oooh     Ooooooooooh



        Eb5             F#5            E5           B5
You say we dont need a safety net; we need a fire hose, 
                       F#5      E5                                 B5
and you say that were burnin, burnin, you tell me we?re ready to blow. 
      Eb5                     F#5       E5         B5
But aint there somethin to be said for likeability? 
                             F#5        E5
Something goods going to happen. 
                        B5
Someone will take us in under their wing and then 



B5                                        F#5
were gonna be alright; we are still good-looking. 
                    E5                B5                    F#5
Well, somewhat good-looking, and everything counts in its way. 
E5             Ab5
We are rising stars, and we wont need bootstraps. 
         B5       E5                  Ab5
Well hang on to kind hands of people with faces like ours.
      B5          E5            F#5          E5             B5 E5  B5
Well hang on to kind hands of people with faces like ours.
