I got rice cooking [C] in the microwave, [D] got a three day beard, [Em] I don't plan [C] to shave, [G] and
it's a [D] goofy [Em] thing but I just [C] gotta [D] say, [C] I'm doing [G]
alright.

some [G] homemade soup.
[D] I'm feeling pretty [Em] good and [C] that's the truth.
[G] [D] It's neither drink [Em] nor
[C] drug [D] induced, no, [C] I'm just [G] doing alright.
[D] And it's a great [Em] day to be alive, [Am] I know the
sun [G] still shining [C] when I close [D] my eyes.
There's hard [Em] times in the neighborhood, [Am] but why [G] can

[D] They did their best [Em] and I left [C] it alone, [D] oh, I [C] hope they're doing
[G] alright.
Now I look in the mirror and what do I see?
[D] A lone wolf there [Em] staring [C] back at
[G] me, [D] longing the truth [Em] but harmless [C] as can be.
[D] Lord, [C] I guess he's doing [G] alright.
