Verse
F7 D7 Gm7 C7
Maybe I'm just a mess and you made me this way
F7 D7 Gm7 C7
I could try to impress you but my brain and words will never obey
F7 D7
Just scramble my words leave them sunny side up
Gm7 C7
The smile on your face means my tongue's tying up
F7 D7
And maybe I'll eventually give it up
Gm7 C7
But given my luck I'm not giving too much
Am7 D7
And maybe I don't deserve you but
Gm7 C7 Am7
Lately Hiding from virtue won't make me
D7
Run away from you
Gm7 C7
Oh I just don't understand
[Chorus]
F7 D7 Gm7 C7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
F7 D7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Gm7 C7
I won't pay them any mind
F7 D7
Oh I just want you to know
Gm7 C7
That if I don't really show
Am7 D7
How I feel
Gm7 C7
Just know that it's real
Yeah
[Verse 2]
F7 D7 Gm7
Maybe I just don't get the message
C7 F7
Maybe I'm just a lonely mess and
D7 Gm7
How the breeze fumbles with your dress is
C7 Am7
Another reason I'm hypnotized
D7 Gm7
See the amazon in your eyes
C7 Am7
Dream of ways I can stand beside
D7 Gm7
Be your sun when the rain subsides
A#m C7
I just want you to know
[Chorus]
F7 D7 Gm7 C7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
F7 D7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Gm7 C7
I won't pay them any mind
F7 D7
Oh I just want you to know
Gm7 C7
That if I don't really show
Am7 D7
How I feel
Gm7 C7
Just know that it's real
[Bridge]
F7 D7
Ain't a soul brighter than yours high beams down the highway
Gm7 C7
Looking for a better thing wouldn't happen even if I tried it
F7 D7
All of my words tripping over obstacles and hurdles
Gm7 C7
Tryna find a way to speak to you is eternal
F7 D7
I pull up in the driveway too nervous to respond
Gm7
To your message I'm sorry
A#7 Am7
I know that I don't dese rve you
D7 Gm7 F7
But Lord knows I love you
[Chorus]
F7 D7 Gm7 C7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
F7 D7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Gm7 C7
I won't pay them any mind
F7 D7
Oh I just want you to know
Gm7 C7
That if I don't really show
Am7 D7
How I feel
Gm7 C7
Just know that it's real
