Life ain´t how you pictured it You´re face down in your bed again Screamin´ in your pillow
Life ain´t what you thought it´d be
When you were wide-eyed, seventeen Learnin´ how to let go
You´re alright But sometimes
Grass won´t grow and the stars won´t shine Smoke all day but you don´t get high You can´t find the words to say goodbye Sometimes you get up but you can´t get gone Got a strong hand but you can´t hold on Hey there, tough guy Even cowboys cry Even cowboys cry
As you grow, you understand Everything´s just one big scam Screamin´ in your pillow
And you´re alright But sometimes
Grass won´t grow and the stars won´t shine Smoke all day but you don´t get high You can´t find the words to say goodbye Sometimes you get up but you can´t get gone Got a strong hand but you can´t hold on Hey there, tough guy Even cowboys cry Even cowboys cry
(Ooh, ooh) Ooh (Ooh), ooh
And you´re alright (You´re alright) But sometimes (But sometimes)
Yeah, you´re alright (Yeah, you´re alright) But sometimes
The grass won´t grow and the stars won´t shine Smoke all day but you don´t get high Hey there, tough guy
