IT'S OKAY

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter

A9 = A (add 9, no 3rd)


         INTRO:  G


                 G
             I.  I'd love to hold you
                     C                     G
                 and not just look at your face.

                 now that I've told you,
                 A9           D7
                 must I also erase
                 C
                 all the pain, all the pain
                      G        D        C
                 your old love made you feel?
                             D
                 or should I wait
                     Em      D         G
                 for all the wounds to heal?


                 G
            II.  have you decided
                     C                G
                 you never will love again?

                 as if your pride could
                 A9               D7
                 be the same as a friend?
                 C
                 only love, only love
                     G        D        C
                 can take the place of love.
                         D     Em
                 and any other truth
                    D       G
                 is just pretend.


                               C
      BRIDGE A:  you're in the middle, in the middle
                 G
                 of a bridge to me.
                         C
                 come on over, come on over.
                 G          A9       D
                 leave your life's debris.


  INSTRUMENTAL:  G - C - G

                      C
      BRIDGE B:  I am waiting, still waiting
                 G
                 like a roadside dog.
                      C
                 I am barking, still barking
                      G         A9  D
                 this one-track monologue.


                 G
            II.  maybe you're thinkin'
                   C               G
                 I know my line by heart.

                 but I'm not a phony
                          A9                  D7
                 like you meet at the singles bar.
                 C
                 it's just me, and there's just you
                 G       D        C
                 smiling as if to say:
                      D      Em        Em7/D
                 come on and touch me,
                 C    D      Em        Em7/D
                 come on and touch me,
                 C    D      Em        D
                 come on and touch me,
                       G
                 it's okay!

                 all right.

                 okay!


        ENDING:  G - G/B - D - G
