Pretty Ok

	  		   Intro: C 
verse 1 
 C 
My family left the city in the year 2004 
  C 
Yeah, the bishop spun my mother round and pushed her out the door 
         F            G            D 
And the blindfold was tied a double knot 
       F                G                   C 
She's peeking out in the Goodwill parking lot 


verse 2

Lewis was the only friend I made for all that year 
  C                                                                                 F 
His father watched cartoons and construct castles from empty cans of beer after work 
       G    C 
For the MDSHA 
    F                    G              C 
The sun danced off his reflector vest all day 


Chorus 
    F             G 
And everything was fine (everything) 
   C             Am 
And everything was good (was good)

And everything was pretty O.K 


verse 3 
  C 
Lewis let us skateboard to meet Jay so I could see 
  C 
His darkened room all full of porn and ICP CDs 
    F               G                     D 
The Hewlett Packard glow, the double dare 
   F            G                  C 
The model in his desktop background bare 


Bridge 
 C 
We rode home and climbed the hill to Lewis' double life 
 C 
His father asked if he had filled that hole in the backyard 
         F        G              D 
He said no and I followed to his room 
    F               G                  D               C 
His mother's steady stream of filtered cigarette smoke womb 
   F               G              D              C 
We sat down on his bed the sunset gave way to the stars 
      F               G          C 
Then Lewis taught me how to play guitar 


Chorus 
    F             G 
And everything was fine (everything) 
   C             Am 
And everything was good (was good) 
   F             Fm           C 
And everything was pretty O.K 
 F            G 
Everything was fine 
   C              Am 
Oh, everything was good 
   F             Fm          C 
And everything was pretty O.K 


verse 4 
C 
Lewis failed in algebra 
C 
He failed in English too 
C 
He had no middle name and no desire to go to college 
          F          G             D 
So he'd sit and wait patiently to leave 
     F           G                 C 
Pretending to be listening carefully
