Please don’t worry I’m alright,

      F                 G

Black top, blue sky, big town full of little white lies
Everybody’s your friend you can never be sure
Fancy cars and diamond rings, all kinds of shiny things
Girl you’ll remember what your knees are for

Dear Mom and Dad,
Please send money. I’m so broke it ain’t funny
Don’t need much just enough to get me through
Please don’t worry I’m alright, I’m playin’ here at
the bar tonight
This time I’m gonna make my dreams come true
I love you more than anything in the world
Love, your baby girl

I know I’m on my way

      F            C      G
I can feel it everytime I play

         F             C      G
And it’s worth all the dues I pay

           Dm       F       G
When I can write to you and say

Dear Mom and Dad,
I’ll send money. I’m so rich it ain’t funny
Oughtta be more than enough to get you through
Please don’t worry I’m alright, I’m stayin’ here at
the Ritz tonight
Whatta ya know all our dreams came true
Remember me in ribbons and curls
I still love you more than anything in the world
Love, your baby girl
