EEverything is Acool
Everything's oEkay
Why just before last B7Christmas
My baby went aEway
Across the sea to an iAsland
While the bridges brightly Eburned
So far away from B7my land
The valley of the unconEcerned
EI was walking down the rAoad, man
Just looking at my sEhoes
When God sent me an B7angel
Just to chase away my bElues
I saw a hundred thousand Ablack birds
Just flying through the Esky
And they seemed to form a tB7eardrop
From a black haired angel's Eeye
That tear fell all arouAnd me
And it washed my sins aEway
Now, everything is B7cool
Everything's oEkay
A E B7 E
EEverything is Acool
Everything's oEkay
Why just before last ChriB7stmas
My baby went aEway
And I find it real suArprising
For myself to hear me sEay
That everything is cB7ool
Everything's okEay
Everything is cB7ool
Everything's oEkay
Why it was just before last ChrB7istmas
My baby went aEway
