G  
I was born my papa's son  
  C                   F       C  G  
A wandering eye and a smokin' gun   
G  
Now some of you you would live through me  
      C              F     C        G  
Would lock me up and throw away the key  
G  
Or just find a place to hide away  
    C                   F    C    G  
And Hope that I'll just go away, huh  

 G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight  
G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight
  


G  
Now I bring you precious contraband  
 C                   F       C  G  
And ancient tales from distant lands  
G  
Of conquerors and concubines  
 C              F     C        G  
And conjurers from darker times  
G  
Of betrayal and conspiracy  
C                   F    C    G  
Sacrilege and heresy  

 G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight  
G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight
  

G  
I got every thing you wont or need 
 C                   F       C  G  
Your darkest fear your fondest dreams  
G  
Ask you questions tell you lies  
 C                   F       C  G  
Criticize and sympathize  
G  
Well be careful what you wish for friend  
 C                   F       C  G  
Because I've been to hell and now I'm back again 

 G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight  
G             Em    D  
I feel alright  
C                G  
I feel alright tonight
