(intro riff)

(G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)  x 6

VERSE 1:
G
I was born my papa's son
  Cadd9               Dm-sus4     (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)x2
A wanderin' eye and a smokin' gun
    G
Now some of you would live through me
Cadd9          Dm-sus4            (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)x2
Lock me up and throw away the key
       G
Or just find a place to hide away
Cadd9              Dm-sus4       (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)x2
Hope that I'll just go away

CHORUS:
        Em     Dsus4   Cadd9      (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)x2
I feel alright,      I feel alright tonight
        Em     Dsus4   Cadd9      (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9)x2
I feel alright,      I feel alright tonight

(same chord pattern throughout the song)

VERSE 2:
I'll bring you precious contraband
And ancient tales from distant lands
Of conquerors and concubines and
Conjurers from darker times
Betrayal and conspiracy
Sacrilege and heresy

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL
(G     Cadd9     Dm-sus4     Cadd9)    x 2      (listen to get the timing right)
(G    Dm-sus4    Cadd9)                x 4

VERSE 3:
I got every thing you wont or need
Your darkest fear, your fondest dream
I ask you questions, tell you lies
Criticize and sympathize
Be careful what you wish for friend
Because I've been to hell and now I'm back again

CHORUS

OUTRO:
                (G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9) x2
I feel alright
                 G   Dm-sus4   Cadd9   (G)
I feel alright
