     I'M ALRIGHT  Jo Dee Messina

C                            F
Well, it's been a long time glad to see your face
    C                          G7
I knew we'd met again another time another place
C                       F
Can't believe it's been so many years 
               C                  G7
You'd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
C                      F
Looking good in your three piece suit
             C                          G7
You know I always knew you'd take the business route
C                            F
You were always the one to follow the light
         C                 G7     C  
And you look like you're doing alright  yea
C                               F   
Been singing for my rent Been singing for my supper
      C                   G7
I'm above the below and below the upper
       C                         F      
I'm struck in the middle where money gets tight
        C         G7      C
But I guess I'm doing alright

ChORUS:
C        F       C       G7
I'm all I'm all I'm al-right
           C                 F
It's a beautiful day not a cloud in sight
       C         G7      C
So I guess I'm doing alright
A      E     F      G
Oh wo Oh wo I'm al-right 
      C                     F         
I've got a good old friend here with me tonight
        C         G7       C
And I guess I'm doing al-right


C                            F 
Well we had a lot of dreams when we were younger
        C                               G7
They thought that we were crazy but we had the hunger
     C                    F     
We kept a lot of friends skip a lot of class
C                               G7
Been on top of the world and knocked on our ***
C                 F
We lost our guts We lost in love
             C           G7  
We lost our minds when things got tough
       C                 F
But beating time is a losing fight
        C         G7      C 
And I guess I'm doing al-right
                              C        G7      C   
go to chorus but add Well I guess I'm doing alright alright

C                         F
Well I hate to see this evening end
C                         G7
God only knows when I'll see you again
       C          F
Just send a fax send me a letter
     C                  G7
or give me a call that would even be better
C                F                   C             G7
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
      C                 F         
And tell them all my future is looking bright
         C                 G7       C
Well I miss them but I'm doing al-right
          C                  G7       C
I said I miss them but I'm doing al-right   go to ending

ENDING:
