Feelin' Alright

Stevie Winwood

[piano & congas intro]

Seems I've got to have a change of scene
'cause every night I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it could have been
Left here on my own or so it seems
I've got to leave before I start to scream
But someone's locked the door and took the key

[rhythm joins in]

chorus (backing vocals):
You feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
Well, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself

Well, you sure took me for one big ride
And even now I sit and I wonder why
Every time I think of you I've got to stop myself from crying
I gotta carry on now, I've go to keep trying
Gonna stop believin' in all your lies
Got too much to do now before I die

chorus:
You feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself
Well, you feelin' alright?
I'm not feelin' too good myself

[piano solo - with full band]

[piano and congas as intro]

[rhythm joins with singing]

Don't put too much into all I say
Though at the time I really felt that way
But that was then, now it's today;
Now it looks as if I'm here to stay
'til someone comes along and takes my place
With a different name and a different face

[chorus]
[guitar solo]
[bring it down to nothing with rhythm stops]
