[Intro]
D  x4


You're Alright

then
D  x4


[Verse 1]
D
  You fought your way
      G       D
to an inch of freedom
D
  You looked around
       A      D
but it wasn't there
D
  You can't ignore
    G        D
the voice of reason


[Chorus 1]
C Bm A G
        You can't be what you want
C Bm A G                             D D
        so you better be what you are


[Verse 2]
D
  You fought your way to
   G       D
an inch of freedom
D
  You did your best
         A      D
and they didn't care
D
  You've had your share and
    G         D
you have your reasons


[Chorus 2]
C Bm A G
        You can't be what you want
C Bm A G                             C Bm A
        so you better be what you are


[Chorus 3]
Em
  So we begin our story
G
  Beleaguered and taken down
D
  Everybody wants a piece
                C
of what's going on
Em
  Afraid you'll become
               G
dull and boring In a
suit that doesn't fit
D
  Everybody wants a piece
                C
of what's going on
A
  You can't mean what you
    D A
said   You're not sorry
                D A
for a word of it   Everybody
                  D A
wants to get ahead   Now
it's not too late
to say you're sorry


[Post Chorus]
D  x4


[Verse 3]
D
  You've backed yourself
  G    D     a
into a corner You looked
              A      D
around and it wasn't there
D
  You're such a sucker
    G     D
for superstition


[Chorus 4]
C Bm A G
        You can't be what you want
C Bm A G                             C Bm A
        so you better be what you are


[Chorus 5]
Em
  So we begin our story
G

D
  Everybody wants a piece
                C
of what's going on
Em
  Afraid you'll become
               G
dull and boring In a
suit that doesn't fit
D
  Everybody wants a piece
                C
of what's going on
A
  You can't mean what you
    D A
said   You're not sorry
                D A
for a word of it   Everybody
                  D A
wants to get ahead   Now
it's not too late
to say you're sorry
