You’ll be o kay.

You’ll be o kay.

The sun will rise

to bet ter days.

And change will come;

it’s on its way.

Just close your eyes,

and let it rain.

’Cause you’re (Bb)nev er a lone,

and I will (Bb)al ways be there.

You just car ry (F)on;

you will (Bb)un der stand.

You’ll be o kay.

You’ll be o kay.

Just look in side;

you know the way.

And Let it go;

it’s fly a way,

and say good bye

to yes ter day.

’Cause you’re (Bb)nev er a lone,

and I will (Bb)al ways be there.

You just car ry (F)on;

you will (Bb)un der stand.

You’ll be o kay.

you will (Bb)un der (F)stand.

And I (Dm)will (C)be (Bb)strong

when (Dm)love (C)is (Bb)gone.

And I’ll (Dm)car (C)ry on.

You’ll be o kay.

You’ll be o kay.

The sun will rise

to bet ter days.

You’ll be o kay.

You’ll be o kay.

Just close your eyes,

and let it rain.

When you (Bb)need it the (F)most,

and all you’ve (Bb)got is a (F)prayer,

You must car ry (F)on.

You will (Bb)un der stand.

You will (Bb)un der stand.

You will (Bb)un

der stand.

You’ll be o kay.

You’ll (Bb)be o kay.

You’ll (Bb)be o kay.
