                               The Middle

                                                           Jimmy Eat World

D  A  G  D
    D                             A
    Hey, don't write yourself off yet
                               G                            D
    It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
    Just try your best - try everything you can
    Don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away

                      (pause) D
                It just takes some time, little girl
                                (pause) A
                You're in the middle of the ride
                                       (pause) G
                Everything, everything will be just fine
                                       (pause) D
                Everything, everything will be alright, alright

    Hey, you know they're all the same
    You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in
    Live right now, yeah just be yourself
    It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else

                It just takes some time, little girl
                You're in the middle of the ride
                Everything, everything will be just fine
                Everything, everything will be alright, alright

                It just takes some time, little girl
                You're in the middle of the ride
                Everything, everything will be just fine
                Everything, everything will be alright, alright
                          *Solo*   A  D  A  D   G D A A7

    Hey, don't write yourself off yet
    It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
    Just do your best - do everything you can
    And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say

                It just takes some time, little girl
                You're in the middle of the ride
                Everything, everything will be just fine
                Everything, everything will be alright, alright

                It just takes some time, little girl
                You're in the middle of the ride
                Everything, everything will be just fine
                Everything, everything will be alright, alright...
