-2   3   3   -3   3    -2   2  -1  2
Man-y's the time I've been mis-tak-en 
-4   4  4  -4   -4   -3
And man-y times con-fused. 
 2    3   3   -3  3   -2   2  -1  2
Yes, and I've of-ten felt for-sak-en 
-4   5    6 -55  6 -55-35
And cer-tain-ly mis-used 
5    5   5   5   -4     3 -3-4-33 3
Oh, but I'm all right, I'm all  right 
 3    3  -3  4  3  -2   2
I'm just wea-ry to my bones 
  4    -3   -4   4   -5  5  -4
Still, you don't ex-pect to be 
  4    -4  -3  3   -4
Bright and bon vi-vant 
2  -2  3  3   -1    2
So far a-way from home,  
-34 3  2  2   -1    1 
so far a-way from home 

1   2     3  3  -3
I don't know a soul  
  3   -2    2  -1    2
who's not been bat-tered 
-4  -4   -4 -4   4     4    -4  -4  -3
I don't have a friend who feels at ease 
2   2     3  3  -3     3 
I don't know a dream that's  
-2    2   -1    2
not been shat-tered 
-4   5  6 -55  6 -55-35
or driv-en to its knees 
5    5   5    5   -4      3  -3    3
Oh, but it's all right, it's all right 
 3  3   -3 4  4  3   -2   2
for we lived so well so long 
 4 -3   -4  4  -5   5  -4
Still, when I think of the 
 4    -4    -3     3  -4
road we're trav-’ling on 
2 -2   3    3     -1     2
I won-der what's gone wrong 
2  -3   -3   3   3  3 2-1 1  2     -1    1 
I can't help it, I won-der what's gone wrong 

 1  1    2   -1  1  -1  1
And I dreamed I was dy-ing 
1    2     -2  3   3    -5  5  -4  -4  4  -3
I dreamed that my soul rose un-ex-pect-ed-ly 
-3    4  -4   -3   -3  -4  3
And look-ing back down at me 
  -3   3  -2  2  -2  -1
Smiled re-as-sur-ing-ly 
-1  1    2    2  2  -1   1
And I dreamed I was fly-ing 
 1   2   -2 2  2   -6  6    -5     -5  6   5
And high up a-bove my eyes could clear-ly see 
-3   4  -4  -3 -3  -4  3
The Sta-tue of Lib-er-ty 
 -3   3 -2  2  -2 -1
Sail-ing a-way to sea 
-1  1    2    2  2  -1   1
And I dreamed I was fly-ing 
1   2   3   3   -3   3    -2   2   2    -1
We come on the ship they call the May-flower 
2   -4  -4 -4   4    4     -4    4   -3
We come on the ship that sailed the moon 
1    2  3   3  -3 4    3   1  -1   2     3
We come in the a-ge's most un-cer-tain hours 
-4   4   4  4  6  6 -5 -55-35 
and sing an A-mer-i-can tune 
6-5  5   5   -5   5     3   -3    3
Oh, and it's al-right, it's all right, 
  3   3    2
it's all right 
 3    3   -3  4  -5 6   -5 5
You can't be for-ev-er blessed 
  5    -3 -4    4   -5 -5  -5 -5
Still, to-mor-row's go-ing to be 
-4  4  -4  -3   3  -4
An-oth-er work-ing day 
 2   2  -2  -2  3   3   -1    2
And I'm try-ing to get some rest 
  -3   -3   4   3   3  2   2  2 -1   1
That's all I'm try-ing to get some rest
