Verse
E7 C#7 F#m7 B7
Maybe I'm just a mess and you made me this way
E7 C#7 F#m7 B7
I could try to impress you but my brain and words will never obey
E7 C#7
Just scramble my words leave them sunny side up
F#m7 B7
The smile on your face means my tongue's tying up
E7 C#7
And maybe I'll eventually give it up
F#m7 B7
But given my luck I'm not giving too much
G#m7 C#7
And maybe I don't deserve you but
F#m7 B7 G#m7
Lately Hiding from virtue won't make me
C#7
Run away from you
F#m7 B7
Oh I just don't understand
[Chorus]
E7 C#7 F#m7 B7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
E7 C#7
But I don't believe a word that they say
F#m7 B7
I won't pay them any mind
E7 C#7
Oh I just want you to know
F#m7 B7
That if I don't really show
G#m7 C#7
How I feel
F#m7 B7
Just know that it's real
Yeah
[Verse 2]
E7 C#7 F#m7
Maybe I just don't get the message
B7 E7
Maybe I'm just a lonely mess and
C#7 F#m7
How the breeze fumbles with your dress is
B7 G#m7
Another reason I'm hypnotized
C#7 F#m7
See the amazon in your eyes
B7 G#m7
Dream of ways I can stand beside
C#7 F#m7
Be your sun when the rain subsides
Am B7
I just want you to know
[Chorus]
E7 C#7 F#m7 B7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
E7 C#7
But I don't believe a word that they say
F#m7 B7
I won't pay them any mind
E7 C#7
Oh I just want you to know
F#m7 B7
That if I don't really show
G#m7 C#7
How I feel
F#m7 B7
Just know that it's real
[Bridge]
E7 C#7
Ain't a soul brighter than yours high beams down the highway
F#m7 B7
Looking for a better thing wouldn't happen even if I tried it
E7 C#7
All of my words tripping over obstacles and hurdles
F#m7 B7
Tryna find a way to speak to you is eternal
E7 C#7
I pull up in the driveway too nervous to respond
F#m7
To your message I'm sorry
A7 G#m7
I know that I don't dese rve you
C#7 F#m7 E7
But Lord knows I love you
[Chorus]
E7 C#7 F#m7 B7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
E7 C#7
But I don't believe a word that they say
F#m7 B7
I won't pay them any mind
E7 C#7
Oh I just want you to know
F#m7 B7
That if I don't really show
G#m7 C#7
How I feel
F#m7 B7
Just know that it's real
