This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
All my bills have all gone paid
I crashed the car again
I broke the bank
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/john-mayer/29850.html ]
This coulda been a slow song
A laundry list of all my wrongs
But at the end of the day
This is my beautiful disaster piece I've made
Gonna laugh I know the pain is here
This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain
I don't understand the numbers
But my faith is in the math
And come someday these twisted ties will tangle
Will it back in life
And to all the hearts I've broken
And the ones that once broke mine
I've got suspicions, all will be forgiven in time
Gonna look you in the eye and say
This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain
And if it ever gets bad
I mean stay in bed bad
I'll move to Nova Scotia
Forget the life I had
I'll be up at 9 each morning
Down by the shore
Collecting things that fell off boats in storms
Well ok so I might never
But it's nice to know the option's there
This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain
And it doesn't help
That i keep biting my lip in the same place
