EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Open C
Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to Problems that upset you, oh Don't you know
Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine / And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without you tonight / If we try, we'll get by, so forget all about us tonight
Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes

Sleep and I shall soothe you / calm you and anoint you / Myrrh for your hot forehead, oh Then you'll feel
Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine / And it's cool, and the ointment's sweet
For the fire in your head and feet / Close your eyes, close your eyes / And relax, think of nothing tonight
Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes

Woman your fine ointment, brand new and expensive / Should have been saved for the poor
Why has it been wasted? We could have raised maybe / Three hundred silver pieces or more
People who are hungry, people who are starving / Matter more than your feet and hair

Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to / Problems that upset you, oh Don't you know
Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes

Surely you're not saying we have the resources / To save the poor from their lot?
There will be poor always, pathetically struggling / Look at the good things you've got
Think while you still have me / Move while you still see me / You'll be lost you'll be sorry when I'm gone

Sleep and I shall soothe you, calm you and anoint you / Myrrh for your hot forehead / Then you'll feel
Everything's alright, yes, everything's fine / And it's cool and the ointment's sweet / For the fire in your head and feet / Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax Think of nothing tonight
Everything's alright, yes, everything's alright, yes / Close your eyes, close your eyes, and relax
