Intro: | G | G | G | G |

     G                      Gsus4        G                Gsus4
I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kind
      G                    Gsus4       G
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
     G                       Gsus4            G                            Gsus4
I'm high but I'm grounded, I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
      G                  Gsus4       G
I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby

                                      F
And what it all comes down to
C                                                 G               Gsus4   G
  Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
                             F
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
               C                            D          G   G4  G
And the other one is givin' a high five


I feel drunk but I'm sober, I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm workin', yeah
I care but I'm restless, I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry, baby


And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flickin' a cigarette


 | G | G | G | G |  (Jam)  (harmonica)


And what it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is givin' a peace sign


I'm free but I'm focused, I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly, baby
I'm sad but I'm laughin', I'm brave but I'm chickenshit
I'm sick but I'm pretty, baby


And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
Well, I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playin' a piano


And what it all comes down to, my friend, yeah
Is that everything is just fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab
