[Verse 1]
It was out on the highway, it was warmer than blood
It was spaces and basements, faces brimming with love
It was nightfall to daybreak, finding a new way
It was falling asleep at the wheel while awake
It was wasting away; delay the promise of heartache
It was tracing the chest to the arm to the hand
That’s been wielding a knife and trying to
Cut our dreams in pieces but we’ll be fine

[Refrain]
I feel alright, tonight
Yeah, I feel alright tonight

[Chorus 1]
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)

[Verse 2]
It was fear of foreclosure, stock in General Motors
It was boarding up buildings, burnt; the tortured and war-torn
It was unpaid rent checks and all the hope left
The hearts that still beat through the bones in our chests
[Refrain]
I feel alright, tonight
I guess I feel alright, guitar

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 2]
I feel like letting go (I feel)
I feel like letting go (Alright)
I feel like letting go (Tonight)
I feel like letting go, yeah
I feel like giving in (I feel)
I feel like giving in (Alright)
I feel like giving in (Tonight)
I feel like giving in, yeah

[Verse 3]
There’s a chorus of voices below you
There’s a prayer of hope composed in song
In a basement with the lights turned low and
There’s room to sing along, so sing along

[Refrain]
And I feel alright, tonight
Yeah, I feel alright tonight
[Chorus 3]
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)
I feel (I feel alright)
