[D]
[F] [C]
[G] Yeah, it's a fly [F] love song.
[C]
[D] Back myself in a corner, just to fight my way out.
Bothered by my [F] persona, fake [C] friends run they [G] mouth.
Half of them fuckin' corners, other half just don't count.
It's cool, I'll be your [F] stoner, be [Cm] your guy on the [D] couch.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got myself some [F] whiskey, [C] enough to last the [G] night.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got some darker [F] shades [Cm] for these brighter [D] nights.
We let these spiders bite, gonna get up and I'll take the stage.
I've got no face to save, [F] no bridge to pave.
I'm [C] nothing but a paper [G] slave, but I play this ancient game.
Like I never had a piece or something, so I'm keeping all my speakers [F] bumpin'
for the ones who [C] waking up and keep us [D] plugged in.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got myself some [F] whiskey, [Cm] enough to last the [G] night.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got some darker [F] shades [Cm] for these brighter nights.
[Dm] You may be dangerous, but I don't see you.
You may be God to [F] them, to [C] us you'll see [Gm] through.
We trying to take the day, cause ain't nothing left to take.
No longer have to [F] wait, we [C] living shorter [Dm] days with
Darker shades, darker shades, darker [F] shades [C] for a brighter [Gm] night.
Darker shades, darker shades, darker [F] shades [C] for a brighter [D] night.
They say that we too rowdy, carry a dead man's rhymes.
Miami's got these [F] vices, I [Cm] can't get out my [G] mind.
Everyday walk a wasteland, wasted our urban life.
Lately my mind is [F] racing, but [Cm] there's no finish [D] line.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got myself some [F] whiskey, enough [C] to last the [G] night.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got some darker [F] shades for [C] these brighter [D] nights.
We live with hyper sights, seeing out into the future still.
Giving dummies a bit of bloody and running [F] with a couple buddies if [C] you're trying to shoot to [G] kill.
This here's no movie reel, no cool hand Luke appeal.
Little youth is real, you gotta move [F] to still survive when [C] they wanna nuke our [Dm] fields.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got myself some [F] whiskey, enough to last the [Gm] night.
I'll be alright, I'll be alright.
I got some darker [F] shades for [C] these brighter [Dm] nights.
You may be dangerous, but I don't see you.
You may be God to [F] them, to [C] us you're see through.
[Gm] We trying to take the day, cause ain't nothing left to take.
No longer have to [F] wait, we [C] living shorter [Dm] days with
Darker shades, darker shades, darker [F] shades for [C] a brighter [Gm] night.
Darker shades, darker shades, darker [F] shades for [E] a brighter night.
