G                   Dm
Three way lanes and aeroplanes
F            C
Lonely hotel rooms
G                 Dm
Burger stands and new wave bands

Poker games and baggage claims
F               C
Always there to lose
G                Dm
Dirty shirts and bits of skirts
  F                 C
A constant smell of booze


[Chorus]
G                    Dm
Well it's alright by me
F               C
It's alright by me

What has got to be has got to be
F               C
It's alright by me, yeah, yeah, yeah
