         C                            F                    C         F  C
You know just the other morning I was hangin’ around in my house
C                                           F                           C     F C
I had the new book with pictures of Madonna naked and I was checkin’ it out
G  	       	  	          F
Just then a friend of mine came thru the door
G                                F
Said she'd never pegged me for a scumbag before
G                      F
Said I don’t wanna see you no more
      C                G
And I still don't know why


Chorus:
               C             F
I think I'm an alright guy
               C             F
I think I'm an alright guy
       G
Well I just wanna live until I’ve gotta die
  F
I know I ain't perfect but God knows I try
  C                    F
I think I'm an alright guy
  	         C     F C
I think I'm alright



Well, maybe I'm dirty, maybe I smoke a lot of dope
But it ain't like I'm going on TV and tearing up pictures of the Pope
I know I get wild and I know I get drunk
Well, it ain't like I’ve got a bunch of bodies in my trunk
My old man used to call me a f**ked up punk
And I still don't know why


Chorus


Just the other night these cops pulled me over outside the bar
They turned on their lights, they ordered me out my car
Man, I was only kiddin' when I called 'em a couple of dicks
But still they made me do the stupid human tricks
I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of f**kin’ hicks
And I still don't know why

Chorus
