Then it becomes fairly simple just playing D instead of A, etc. (see the chord formations). Or you can play it with a capo on 1st fret, which is how I've finally put the chords. [Editor's Comment]

She's the wave, she turns the tide She sees the man inside the child It's alright...it's alright...it's alright She moves in mysterious ways (x3) It's alright...it's alright...it's alright Lift my days...light up my nights
