[Verse 1] (Sounds nice palm-muted with downstrokes)
 
C                             G
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
                           F                            C
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
              C                      G
Just do your best, do everything you can
                              F                             C
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C
It just takes some time
                                  G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
                            F
Everything, everything will be just fine
                            C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C                             G
Hey, you know they're all the same
                             F                         C
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in
           C               G
Live right now, just be yourself
                          F                        C
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C
It just takes some time
                                  G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
                            F
Everything, everything will be just fine
                            C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
 
        C
It just takes some time
                                  G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
                            F
Everything, everything will be just fine
                            C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright

[Verse 3]
 
C                             G
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
                           F                            C
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
               C                      G
Just try your best, try everything you can
                             F                       C
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        C

Everything, everything will be just fine
                            C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
 
        C
It just takes some time
                                  G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
                            F
Everything, everything will be just fine
                            C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
