Week 9: It will be alright

A few of you have asked me to finish the Berklee series, so here goes.

Week 9 centered around the Type 2 prechorus song, which differs from Type 1 in two significant ways:

  • the verse, prechorus, and chorus are on three different grooves/progressions
  • the Type 2 prechorus builds intensity right away

Title: It Will Be Alright

Verse

(N.C.)................Em......
Are you sure that you need it?
......................G.......
Are you sure that you want it?
..........................Bm.....
All the heart ache you're feeling
.....C..............D....
When love turns you down?

(N.C.)................Em......
Are you sure that you found it?
.........................G.......
Are you sure that you'll keep it?
....................Bm.....
All the failures of being
.....C..............D....
When life wears you down?

Prechorus

G.............C................Bm..............D.....
We were never saying that we'd always stay the same
G..............Bm..............C................D.....
Now that we're older should we bow our heads in shame?

Chorus

It will be al-right
C..........D.....Bm...........Em...
There will be an-other ray of light
C.......D.....Gm.............Bb......
It will be al-right, just be-lieve it

I know that you'll feel it
D.......D7....G....
It will be al-right
