Topic: "It's All Good"
Hey everyone. I’ve been busy doing other things besides writing lately but I’m back. This song kind of comes from a few ideas I’ve cupped together around the central idea that no matter how bad it gets the human spirit prevails so the It’s All Good refers to how people will find a way to get by no matter how difficult it is.

Verse 1
[Em]I spent a lot of time and a lot of money
On [G]what some may think is funny
[D]But I don’t see it that [A]way
See I [Em]try to spin music from my memories
Be[G]fore they fade away from me
Or [D]get lost in my aged fogy [A]haze
Chorus
But it’s [C]all good [D]
Yeah it’s all [Em]good
Verse 2
Like this [Em]young cashier at a grocery store
Having [G]ring ‘em up problem now she’s having some more
But she [D]takes it with a smile all the [A]same
You [Em]know she’d rather be somewhere else
But [G]where that is you couldn’t guess
So you make [D]small talk and with a tired she [A]says
Chorus
It’s [C]all good [D]
Yeah it’s all [Em]good
Bridge
[D]I guess every [A]soul has a [Em]story
A[D]bout how they [A]got to where they [Em]are
[D]Looking up [A]some they’re bound for [Em]glory
[D]Others don’t want to go that [A]far
Chorus
But it’s [C]all good [D]
Yeah it’s all [Em]good
Verse 3
[Em]Early today at a construction site
[G]Work was stopped because of flashing lights
[D]Cops were checking for illegal a[A]liens
I [Em]guess it’s not okay that they built our homes
Or [G]clean them and then just leave us alone
We [D]had to lock ’em up to send them back where they’re [A]from
Chorus
Is it [C]all good [D]
Is it [C]all good [D]
Is it [C]all good [D]
I guess it’s all [Em]good
