       LEAD-IN:  ( Bm7 A ) ( E )  A   A7
 
     (D    A )         ( E7          A )
         Although life's startin' to go
      Bm7                  E
      some ways other than wrong,
     (D      A )  ( C#m7      A )
        I'm  just uneasy with luck
    ( F#m7     E )         A7
 that stayed a stranger so long.
 
      D                 ( E         A )
 I've landed the best job I've ever had
      D                     E
  and seem to be holdin' it down.
    ( Bm            A )  ( E7 )        F#m
  But things have a way of turnin' out bad;
    ( B         A )     ( E )     A7
don't worry I'm sure I'll turn it around.


         I'm stay'n sober and sane
      healthy as never before.
         Soon I might even try
      walkin' an' workin' out more.
      
  I'm watchin' my diet, cuttin' things out,
blood pressure, cholesterol, stress are down,
  but this is my life we're talkin' about;
don't worry I'm sure I'll turn it around.

BRIDGE:
     E                         D
   I had some bad decades, now I'm OK,
     E                       D
 I'm kinda glad everything's going my way,
   ( D         A )    ( D        A )
 yet how can I trust or even get used to
   ( D              A )      (F#m7) E
     pleasures I've just been introduced to.


         I'd gone loveless so long;
      never able to see
         just how whoever I found
  was ever gonna want me.
  
  But here I am makin' a brand new start 
with the tender new love I've found.
  Yet things have a way of fallin' apart;
don't worry I'm sure I'll turn it around.

Yeah, this is my life we're talkin' about;
  I'm pretty sure I can turn it around.
