everything everything will be alright

(from the high 19 till the 12 is fast up and down picking,
I think it is 6 picks at each, but it may be 8, play it how
you think.)
Verse 3:
D5 A5
hey, don't write yourself off yet
G5 D5
it's only in your head you feel left out, or looked down on
A5
do your best, do everything you can
G5 D5
and don't you worry what their bitter hearts, are gonna say
Chorus:
D5
It just takes some time
A5
little girl you're in the middle of the ride
G5
everything everything will be just fine
D5
everything everything will be alright
That's the whole song, pretty simple, just one riff, you have to
remember to use palm muting on the verses and not on the chorus,
and if you can't manage the solo, get a mate to play it!
