[Intro] G D C D G F C G G [Verse]
G                       D
Sonny boy, you need new sneakers

       C                                D
I better go into town and get them friday night

        G                          F
Come to think of it, kid, you need just about everything

   C                                G
But I think everything will be all right

       G                               D
So you went and got yourself back into trouble

         C                         D
Went and got yourself into another fight

        G                              F
Come on here, let me see your eye, now it's all black and swollen

C                                   G
But I think everything will be all right

     F                   C            G
Yes, I think that you're gonna be all right

G                                     D
I don't know why you're such a troublemaker

                C                           D
You'd think that maybe by now you'd see the light

G                                  F
Getting yourself torn up, boy, and we don't have much money

    C                              G
But I think everything will be all right

     F            C                 G
Yes, I think everything will be all right

    G
Now maybe I shouldn't yell

         D
'cause I know you're just a kid

    C
But I can't always tell

               F                 C             G
What's on your mind, half of the time, brother mine
[Interlude] G D C F C G G [Verse]
   G                                  D
Now I know that you're just my little brother

      C                                       D
And I don't expect you to get everything just right

       G                                   F
But I think you ought to use a little more sense than what you're using

   C                               G
And maybe then things would be all right

     F           C                   G
Yes, may-be then things would be all right

    G                       D
Now I know that I sit and I worry too much

    C                                      D
Especially when you come home such a sight

      G                                     F
But I guess what you've got to do, boy, you go ahead and do it

    C                              G
And I sure hope things will be all right

     F           C                 G
Yes, I hope everything will be all right

        G                                  D
Now you come back here, you scruffy little brother

        C                                 D
Come on back here and let me kiss you goodnight

          G                        F
'cause I know if you were gone I'd miss the sound of laughter

C                                  G
  That's gonna make everything all right

    F                  C              G
Yes, that's gonna make everything all right
[Outro] D C F C G G
