Notes:
- Jewel fingerpicks this song, but you can use a pick if
if you like it better
- Fingerpicking tab samples will be notated below the
"chords" section of this tab
- For ease of playing, only the chords will be fully tabbed,
but the fingerpicking parts not tabbed basically follow
the form of the samples for the rest of the song.
- Yes, I know that the "pre-chorus" is really just still
part of the verses, but it's the easiest way to
explain the chord changes there... lol.
- Jewel DOES NOT play the Tag live solo usually, but I like it,
so I'm puttin' it on here.
- It IS going to be a good day, dammit! Play and believe.

Verse 1:
I say to myself:
C Cmaj9 Am
"Self, why are you awake again?" It's one a.m.
G
Standing at the fridge wide-open, staring
C
Such a sight, fluorescent light, the stars are bright
Cmaj9 Am
I might make a wish, if I believed in that shit
G
But, as it is, I might watch TV
Cause it's nice to see
Pre-Chorus:
D D* Csus2
People more messed up than me
D D* Csus2
I say to myself,
D D* Csus2
As I smile at the wall
D D* Csus2
Let myself fall
Chorus:
(Csus2) G
"It's gonna be all right,
D
No matter what they say
C
It's gonna be a good day
C D
Just wait and see
G
It's gonna be all right
D
Cause I'm all right with me
C
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
D D
It's gotta be..."
Verse 2:
C Cmaj9
I shiver, shut the door
Am
Can't think standing here no more
G
I'm alone, my mind's racing, heart breaking
(G) C
Can you be everything I need you to be
Cmaj9
Can you protect me like a daughter
Am
Can you love me like a father
G
Can you drink me like water
Pre-Chorus:
D D* Csus2
Say I'm like the desert, just way hotter
D D* Csus2
The point of it all
D D* Csus2
Is that if I should fall
D D* Csus2
Still your name I'll call
Chorus:
(Csus2) G
"It's gonna be all right,
D
No matter what they say,
C
Gonna be a good day
C D
Just wait and see
G
It's gonna be okay
D
Cause I'm okay with me
C
It's gonna be, it's gonna be
D
As long as we ...
Bridge:
A
Laugh out loud
C
And laugh like we're mad
G D
Cause this crazy mixed up beauty's all that we have
Am C
Because what's love, but an itch we can't scratch
G D
A joke we can't catch, God, but still we laugh
Verse 3: 1/2 as long
G D/F#add4
Get back in bed, turn off the TV

You say, "It'll be okay, baby, just wait and see"
Chorus:
G D C D
It's gonna be all right, it's gonna be okay

It's gonna be a all right, just wait and see (Just wait and see)
