[Verse 1]
C D G D
What's the deal with your dad?
C D G D
He don't even know my name
C D G C
Didn't know he'd be back, didn't know we'd been bad
D
No one stayed to share the blame
[Verse 2]
C D G D
I didn't mean to do that
C D G D
She won't even come around
C D G C
Every time I looked back, didn't realize that
D
I was better off than now

All the time that I thought was my friend

Be all right till we get back again

Heaven knows you are right (and they will never drag you down)
D G D C
And they will never drag you down (there ain't time to lose sight)

C D G
We never could go back (and I could never leave my home)

And I could never leave my home (why'd they change a face like that?)
D
Why'd they change a face like that?

If I'd never seen you, I could always dream that
C D
I'd be better off alone
[Chorus]

Brother Cain survived the century's end
G D E
All the time that I thought was my friend
G A E
Be all right till we get back again
G A E
Be all right till we get back again
G A E
Oh be all right till we get back again
