[Verse]
A
Johnny take a walk 
         D
With your sister the moon
         A
Let her pale light in
   E
To fill up your room
            A
You´ve been living underground 
D
Eating from a can 
            A
You´ve been running away
               E            A
From what you don´t understand, Ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
A              D
  She´s slippy   you´re sliding down
A                          D
  She´ll be there when you   hit the ground, ah

[Chorus]
A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, it´s alright
C                 G
 She moves in mysterious ways

A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                  G
  she moves in mysterious ways, ah ah ah

[Instrumental]
(intro riff)

[Verse]
A
Johnny take a dive
            D
With your sister in the rain
         A
Let her talk about the things
     E
You can´t explain
      A
To touch is to heal
     D
To hurt is to steal
        A
If you want to kiss the sky
         E              A
Better learn how to kneel, (on your knees boy!)

[Pre-Chorus]
A                D
  She´s the wave   she turns the tide
A                             D
  She sees the man inside the   child!

[Chorus]
A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                  G
  She moves in mysterious ways, ah ah ah

A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                  G
  She moves in mysterious ways, eh

A                        D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright 
C                G
  Lift my days, Light up my nights, oh

[Instrumental]


[Bridge]
Am                D
  One day you´ll look  back
            C                   G
And you´ll see  where you were held  how
         Am                     D
By this love  while you could stand  there
           C
You could move on this moment
G
Follow this feeling

[Chorus/Outro]
A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                  G
  She moves in mysterious ways

A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                  G
  She moves in mysterious ways, oh oh ah

A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                    G
  We move through miracle days

A                       D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright
C                     G
  Spirit moves in mysterious ways

A                        D
  It´s alright, it´s alright, alright 
C                G
  Lift my days, Light up my nights, oh
