Be OK Chords & Lyrics by Ingrid Michaelson
Be OK
guitar chords lyrics
There are too many lead sheets with completely wrong chords, especially on the
bridge. The bridge chords are implied through arpeggios rather than directly
strummed, but with careful listening they can be extracted.
The vertical bars indicate approximate measures.
