#1.
I [Ab]had the world [Db]when you were mine..
but I [Eb]threw it a[Ab]way.[F#][F]
I [Bbm]thought the grass was [F#]greener [Db]there..
[Bb]where I wandered one [Eb]day.
#2.
I [Ab]left your arms for [Db]someone else..
but [Eb]he was never [Ab]true.[F#][F]
I [Bbm]thought the grass was [F#]greener [Db]there..
[Ab]now [Eb]here am [Ebm]I so [Ab]blue.
BRIDGE:
[Ab]Now an[Bbm]other, now an[Eb]other [Cm]holds your hand.
[Am]And there's [Bbm]nothing, there's [Eb]nothing left
for [Ab]me.
And it [G]hurts so much to [Cm]see her stand, [Fm]where
[Bb]I once used to [Eb]be.[Bbm][Eb]
#3.
It [Ab]breaks [C]my [Ab]heart [Db]when you walk by..so [Eb]near,
and yet so [Ab]far.[F#][F]
And the [Bbm]grass is [Db]really [Ab]green[Eb]er [Ab]there..for [Eb]that's
just where you [Ab]are.[C][Db][F#][F]
OUTRO:
I know the [Bbm]grass [Ab]is [Db]greener there..for [Ab]that's
[Eb]just [Cm]where [Eb]you [Ab]are.[Eb][B][Ab]
