[C] [F] [C] [G] [C]

[VERSE 1]
[C]Yesterday I went downtown and saw an [F]old-time picture show
[C]And the hero got a pie in the f[Am]ace
[C]He didn't like that and he [F]stormed around the screen
[C]But everybody else was laughin' in that [C7]place

[CHORUS]
That's cause it ain't [F]hard to get along with s[C]omebody else's troubles
And they don't make you[F] lose any sleep at n[C]ight
[Am]Just as long as fate is out there bustin' [C]somebody else's bubbles
[F]Everything's gonna be [C]alright
[F]And everything's gonna be [C]alright

[VERSE 2]
[C]Tell me, did you ever have to pay for so[F]mething that you didn't do?
[C]And did you ever figure out the reason [Am]why?
[C]And when the doctor says this is gonna hurt me a lot [F]more than this hurts you
[C]Did you ever figure out that that's [C7]a lie?

[CHORUS]
He knows it ain't too h[F]ard to get along with[C] somebody else's troubles
And they[F] don't make you lose any sleep at [C]night
[Am]Just as long as fate is out there bustin' [C]somebody else's bubbles
[F]Everything is gonna be [C]alright
[F]And everything will be [C]alright

[VERSE 3]
[C]And I saw the boss come a-walkin' down [F]along that factory line
[C]He said, "We all have to tighten up our[Am] belts."
[C]But he didn't look any thinner than he did a[F] year ago
[C]And I wonder just how hungry that [C7]man felt

[CHORUS]
But he knows it ai[F]n't too hard to get along with s[C]omebody else's troubles
And they don'[F]t make you lose any sleep at [C]night
[Am]Just as long as fate is out there bustin' [C]somebody' else's bubbles
[F]Everything is gonna be [C]alright
[F]And everything is gonna [C]be alright

[VERSE 4]
[C]And I asked that undertaker what it [F]took to make him laugh
[C]When all he ever saw is people c[Am]ryin'
[C]First he hands me a bunch of flowers that he'd [F]received on my behalf
[C]Said, "Steve, business just gets better [C7]all the time."

[OUTRO]
And it ain't too [F]hard to get along with[C] somebody else's troubles
And they don't make you [F]lose any sleep at n[C]ight
[Am]Just as long as fate is out there bustin' [C]somebody else's bubbles
[F]Everything is gonna be [C]alright
[F]And everything is gonna[C] be alright
