[Verse 1]
        G                 D                      A       A
I spent all day yesterday watchin' the grass grow.
G                      D                  A       A
What I learned is that grass really grows slow.
G                            D                     A       A
Now I that I know there's no reason left for me to stay,
G               D
  I only wish I never heard you say:

[Chorus]
     A         A                    D            D
Have patience, everything will be alright.
     A         A                     D
Have patience, give it just a little time,
G                    A             A
Everything will be alright.

[Verse 2]
        G                 D                      A       A
I spent half my afternoon sittin' at a stop sign,
G                                D                  A       A
thinkin' about how good you look   even when you're lyin'.
G                D                A       A
  Then I lost my car in a parking lot,
  G                  D                  A
I bought a newspaper   and I decided to walk. You said: CHORUS

[Interlude]
G        D        A       A
G        D        A       A
G        D        A       A
G        D        A       A

[Verse 3]
        G                 D                         A       A
I spent all day long just listenin' to the doorbell ring.
G                        D                           A       A
Must have been a Sunday, I could hear the choirs sing.
G                             D                           A       A
Down in the graveyard they're listenin' to the underground,
G                          D
they're the only ones that ever learned to calm down.

[End-Chorus]
A         A                    D          D
Patience, everything will be alright.
     A              A                       D
Have patience, it's really such a beautiful lie.
G                    A
Everything will be alright.
G                    A
Everything will be alright.
G
Everything will be al-,
G                    A
everything will be alright.
