       B5*               A5*
Your friends are on the phone there
         G5*              D5*
It's so close to Paddy’s Day
         B5*            A5*
And it kills you not to be there                        *PALM-MUTED
      G5*              D5*
But life got in the way
     B5*               A5*
If I had to break the bank
             G5*               D5*
Spend every penny on your dreams
       B5
It’s alright
          A5
‘Cause tonight
             G5                D5
We’re gonna paint the town green

Let’s make this place feel like our own

It’s just you and me

It’s alright
