Misc Originals – Alison Grimes - Im Alright (Guitar)

     C          G
I'm okay. I'm alright

           Am                        F
'cause I'm working hard putting up a fight.

    C                G
I'm alright. I can't lie.

  Am              F
I promise you I'm fine.

      C
I'm alright

C         G            Am            F    C
Everyday, everytime I think it might be alright,

C           G                Am        F       Am
Up ahead in flashing lights, I see the warning signs:

Am             G              F               C                  Am
It won't last. It's not fate. They're just pretending to like you.

Am      G           F             Em               G
My bad. My mistake. I'll fake the courage and push through.

         C           G
But, I'm okay. I'm alright.

           Am                        F
'cause I'm trying hard and putting a fight.

      C                 G
I'm alright. I wouldn't lie.

  Am              F
I promise you I'm fine.

      C
I'm alright.

    C             G             Am        F      C
Put on your mask. Fake a smile. Never let anyone see,

C                G           Am           F         Am
that everyday an every mile, it's getting harder to breathe.

Am              G               F        C               Am
There's no air. Nowhere's safe. I cannot keep up this lie,

Am             G            F             Em         G
that I'm good, I'm so fine. Meanwhile I'm crying all night.

C             G               Am            F        C
Is it time to tell the truth? What if I let everyone see,

C               G               Am                F          C
that these cuts and that bruise weren't just from climbing a tree?

Am                G               F              C              Am
They would leave, they would run, and they could use it against me.

Am     G               F          Em            G
Maybe, just this once, I could do something for me.

        C               G
I'm not okay. I'm not alright.

        Am                                 F
But I'm trying hard to make it through the night.

        C                    G
I'm not alright, and I'm not fine.

          Am       G       F
No matter how many times I lie.

C            G
I'm not alright.

Am           F
I'm not alright.

C    G        Am  F
Just breathe, be free.

C    G        Am G F
Just breathe, be free.

      C
Be free.
