It's so g[G]ood to learn that right outside your wi[D]ndow
There's [Em]only friendly fields and open roads.[C]
And you'll sleep [G]better when you think you've [D]stepped back from the brink,
And [Em]found some peace inside yourself; lay [C]down your heavy load.
It gets alr[G]ight
[D] To dream at [C]night.
Believe in [G]solid skies and [F]slate blue earth be[C]low.
But when you [G]see him - you'll k[D]now.
[G]
It's o[G]kay to find the faith to saunter f[D]orward;
There's no [Em]fear of shadows spreading where you stand.[C]
And you'll breathe [G]easier just knowing that the w[D]orst is all behind you,
And the [Em]waves that tossed the raft all night have [C]set you on dry land.
It gets o[G]kay
[D] To praise the [C]day.
Believe in [G]sheltering skies and s[F]table earth beneath[C].
But hear his [G]breath come
Through his [D]teeth.
[G]
[G]Walk [D]by [C]faith,
Tell [Em]no-one [D]what you've [C]seen.
[G]
It's so [G]good to learn that from right here the [D]view goes on forever;
And you'll [Em]never want for comfort,
And you'll [C]never be alone.
See the [G]sunset turning red,
Let all be [D]quiet in your head.
[Em] And look about:
All the [C]stars are coming out.
They [G]shine[D]
Like steel [C]swords.
Wish me [G]well[F]
Where I go.[C]
But when you [G]see me,
You'll [D]know.
