           G               D                C        G 
I'll be alright I'll be alright if I don't have to smile 
            C                Am              D     
If I don't have to face the morning sunrise for a while 
           G                  D             C       G 
I'll get along you know I'll take tomorrow with a grin 
      C              Am             D 
If I never have to think about her love again  
  
             C   Am                 D    G 
And I won't mind     if words are spoken 
          C             A               D 
In empty love songs as long as I don't have to hear 
           G                D                C      G 
I'll be alright if I don't have to face the world again 
          C           Am D           G     D 
And if I never love again I'll be alright  
 
solo: G, C, G, D, G, C, G, D, C, D, G, Em, Am, D, 
 
                G              D                  C        G 
Last night she gave the final word, she said her last goodbye 
     C             Am           D 
And disappeared forever in the world outside 
               G                D              C        G 
One kiss and then she took her leave to go I know not where 
   C             Am            D 
Into the misty shadows of the midnight air  
 
             C   Am                D    G 
But I won't mind    if words are spoken 
          C             A               D 
In empty love songs as long as I don't have to hear 
           G                D                C      G 
I'll be alright if I don't have to face the world again 
          C           Am  D            G   G7 
And if I never love again   I'll be alright 
          C           Am  D             G  D 
And if I never love again   I'll be alright  
 
solo: G, C, G, D, G, C, G, D, C, D, G, Em, Am, D,
