I'M ALRIGHT (Kim Richey, Angelo, Larry Gottlieb)
------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is one measure, except pairs of chords joined by hyphens
 (e.g., D - Em) are one measure total.]
[Kim plays it in G with a capo on 7 (yes, 7).]

D - Em    G    G - A    D       D - Em    G    G - A    D    D
[intro]

D       D                     D          D                F#m  F#m  A  A
  After all was said and done, there was nothing left to do
D             D                 D        D              F#m  F#m     A  A
  The hardest mile I ever walked was the one I walked away     from you

F#m                     Em7                D    D
  So maybe I'm a little ragged around the edges
F#m                        Em7            A           A
  And I've been keeping a little more to myself these days

    D - Em  G          G   -   A         D
But I'm alright, shot down but I'm still standing, yeah
D - Em  G             G    -     A        D
I'm alright, a little banged up from the fall
    D - Em  G         G  -   A         D
But I'm alright, still shaky from the landing, yeah
D - Em  G   G - A      D
I'm alright,    after all

You know it's really not that bad, no matter how bad it might feel
Cause there ain't nothing time won't fix, this ain't nothing that some
  time won't heal
So maybe I've been walking a little wounded
I move a little bit slower now, but that's okay

'Cause I'm alright, shot down but I'm still standing, yeah
I'm alright, a little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright, still shaky from the landing, yeah
I'm alright, after all

Bm                    Bm           D       D
  And every now and then I think about you
  G                D/F#       Em       A
Oh every now and then I cross the line

D - Em    G    G - A    D       D - Em    G    G - A    D
[mandolin solo]
D - Em    G    G - A    D       D - Em    G    G - A    D
[mandolin solo]

I'm alright, shot down but I'm still standing, yeah
I'm alright, a little banged up from the fall
But I'm alright, still shaky from the landing, yeah
I'm alright, after all

D - Em    G    G - A    D    D    D.
[ending]
