It's Alright 311
311 - "It's Alright"
From the "Uplifter" Album
Eb Tuning (all strings down 1 fret)
tabbed by jjhand
I was suprised to learn that 311 finally did a song in a different tuning,
since their catalog is mostly in standard. I got the chord positions from
their performance on Jimmy Kimmel (youtube). Please rate or comment.
Intro Riff (starting 0:07) - some ad-lib is used

Lyrics:
"Stay with me,
Here with me.
Right in this instance.
Not in the distance.
Your head is off in future time.
That's when things get out of line.
Taking in this moment,
your time is so well spent.

"That's where you're suppose to be now."
Verse 2 - Same as before, lyrics are:
"Stay with me.
Here with me.
Right in this instance.
Not in the distance.
Standing at a crossroads, I was at a loss
Those temporary moments, pleasures that are stolen.
Here in the present
You're time is so well spent."
Chorus 2 - Play the same Riff but add this ending on:
