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. 

It’s All Good By Jeff Gilpin


March 27th, 2007




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
