  			         E                                A 
Well I think I've got to have a change of scene 
E                                               A 
'Cause every night I have these strangest dreams 
E                                            A 
Imprisoned by the way things used to be 
E                                      A  
Left alone here by my self or so it seems 
               E                                     A 
I've got to get on out of here before I start to scream 
           E                                              A 
'Cause somebody locked the door and threw away the key 
        
                         E        A                               E                     A 
(Are you) Feelin' Alright          I'm not feeling too good myself 
                         E        A                               E                     A 
(Are you) Feelin' Alright          I'm not feeling too good myself 

         E                                A 
Well baby you sure took me on one big ride 
E                                               A 
And even now I stop and wonder why 
E                                            A 
'Cause when I stop to think about you I start to cry 
E                                      A 
But I mustn't get upset oh no I must keep dry 
               E                                     A 
I've got to stop believing in all your lies 
           E                                              A 
'Cause I've got just too much to do before I die 
                       
                         E        A                               E                     A 
(Are you) Feelin' Alright          I'm not feeling too good myself 
                         E        A                               E                     A 
(Are you) Feelin' Alright          I'm not feeling too good myself 

         E                                A 
Don't you get too lost on all I say 
E                                               A 
'Cause at the time I really felt that way 
E                                            A 
But that was then and now it's today 
E                                      A 
I can't get off yet and so I'm here to stay 
               E                                     A 
'Til someone comes along and takes my place 
           E                                              A 
With a different name and a different face
