  F                  C            Am                  G
I clicked my heels together, and wished for things to be
             F              C                Am               G
I swapped my orchard for an apple, thinking that was what I'd need
       F             C            Am             G
As the alice blue horizon went careering out of sight
           F                  C            Am                  G
but that's alright, that's alright 


          F                  C                  Am                G
I took my sweetheart in the moonlight, where the oaks and chances twist
           F               C               Am               G
I felt the softest of all pulses, dancing through my finger tips
           F              C                Am                  G
I threw myself in at the deep end, from the highest, darkest hight
           F                  C            Am                  G
but that's alright, that's alright                    that's alright


Dm                       Am
         Was that real?        Was that love? 
F                                      G
    Cos I'll have another helping, if thats what it was
Dm                               Am
         Don't underestimate it,        no matter what they say
F                                   G
    Just give me another helping, before it shys and drifts away


    F            C                Am            G
I wrote myself a 10 page song, to understand my mind
              F                     C              Am             G
I caught the ghosts I thought held water, cringing at the world inside
          F                  C                Am            G
It was strange news from a distant star, the understanding type
           F                  C            Am                  G
but that's alright, that's alright                    that's alright


Piano bit with the chords from the verse


Dm                       Am
         Was that real?        Was that love? 
F                                      G
    Cos I'll have another helping, if thats what it was
Dm                               Am
         Don't underestimate it,        no matter what they say
F                                   G
    Just give me another helping, before it shys and drifts away


Break down, play very softly


        F                C                 Am                  G
Did we crash beneath the wonder stars? and find our way back home
     F                   C              Am         G
Once bound for roads of certainty, now suddenly unknown
               F                         C
(well) did you think you would have good news?
            Am                  G
I thought I wouldn't, but now I might

           F                  C            Am                  G
but that's alright, that's alright                    that's alright X7

end on F
