[Verse 1] (Sounds nice palm-muted with downstrokes)
C G
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
F C
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
C G
Just do your best, do everything you can
F C
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away
[Chorus]
C
It just takes some time
G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
F
Everything, everything will be just fine
C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
[Verse 2]
C G
Hey, you know they're all the same
F C
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in
C G
Live right now, just be yourself
F C
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else
[Chorus]
C
It just takes some time
G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
F
Everything, everything will be just fine
C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
C
It just takes some time
G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
F
Everything, everything will be just fine
C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright

[Verse 3]
C G
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
F C
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on

Just try your best, try everything you can
F C
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say
[Chorus]
C
It just takes some time
G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
F
Everything, everything will be just fine
C
Everything, everything will be alright, alright
C
It just takes some time
G
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
F
Everything, everything will be just fine

Everything, everything will be alright, alright

I'm pretty sure the first line of the solo chords should be G G C C, instead of G G G G. I think it sounds better playing along with it at least. Great tab!
