G F C G G
πΈ Verse :
G D
Sonny boy, you need new sneakers
C D
I better go into town and get them friday night
G F
Come to think of it, kid, you need just about everything
C G
But I think everything will be all right
G D
So you went and got yourself back into trouble
C D
Went and got yourself into another fight
G F
Come on here, let me see your eye, now it's all black and swollen
C G
But I think everything will be all right
F C G
Yes
I think that you're gonna be all right
G D
I don't know why you're such a troublemaker
C D
You'd think that maybe by now you'd see the light
G F
Getting yourself torn up, boy, and we don't have much money
C G
But I think everything will be all right
F C G
Yes
I think everything will be all right
G
Now maybe I shouldn't yell
D
'cause I know you're just a kid
C
But I can't always tell
F C G
What's on your mind, half of the time, brother mine

G D C F C G G
πΈ Verse :
G D
Now I know that you're just my little brother
C D
And I don't expect you to get everything just right
G F
But I think you ought to use a little more sense than what you're using
C G
And maybe then things would be all right
F C G
Yes, may-be then things would be all right
G D
Now I know that I sit and I worry too much
C D
Especially when you come home such a sight
G F
But I guess what you've got to do, boy, you go ahead and do it
C G
And I sure hope things will be all right
F C G
Yes
I hope everything will be all right
G D
Now you come back here, you scruffy little brother
C D
Come on back here and let me kiss you goodnight
G F
'cause I know if you were gone I'd miss the sound of laughter
C G
That's gonna make everything all right
F C G
Yes, that's gonna make everything all right
