G             C   D                 Em
It’s never alright. It comes and it goes.
               C                           D Dsus4
Oh it’s always around, even when it don’t show.
                 Em                           C
They say it gets better. Well I guess that it might.
                   G    D                  G  C  G
But even when it’s better, it’s never alright.


Verse 2
           C D                      Em
It’s never OK. Lonely moves here and there.
             C                            D    Dsus4
Sometimes it stays in one place and just stares.
                  Em                      C
They say that the darkness is just before light.
                 G     D                   G      C G
Each day may get brighter, but it’s never alright.


Chorus/Bridge
Am                                      G   Gsus4 G
Try real hard to remember as good as it gets.
        Am                       F               D
But the harder and harder I try, all I can do is forget.


Verse 1 (horns on first two lines, then sing last two)


Verse 3
                C   D              Em
It’s never been mine to win or to lose.
                    C                       D Dsus4
No it’s always been yours, to pick or to choose.
                 Em                           C
They say love is better when set free now halftime
                   G    D                  G  C  G
But even when it’s better, it’s never alright.
                G    D                    G  C  G, G C G
Even if it gets better, it won’t be alright.
